Epilepsy Seizure Detection in EEG Signals Using Wavelet Transforms and Neural Networks [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a record of the electric signal generated by the cooperative action of brain cells, that is, the time course of extracellular field potentials generated by their synchronous action. EEG is widely used in medicine for diagnostic and analysis of several conditions. In this paper, we present a system based on neural networks and wavelet analysis, able to identify epilepsy seizures using EEG as inputs. This work is part of a research looking for novel models able to obtain classification rates better that the state-of-the-art, for the identification of normal and epileptic patients using EEG. Here we present results using a Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and the Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) for feature extraction and Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Networks (FF-ANN) for classification. By using the benchmark database provided by the University of Bonn, our approach obtains an average accuracy of 99.26 % tested using threefold cross-validation, which is better than other works using similar strategies.
