Application of Neural Networks to the Electroencephalogram Analysis for Epilepsy Detection

Many techniques were used in order to detect and to predict epileptic seizures on the basis of electroencephalograms. One of the approaches for the prediction of the epileptic seizures is the use the chaos theory, namely determination largest Lyapunov's exponent or correlation dimension of the scalp EEG signals. This paper presents the neural network technique for epilepsy detection. It is based on computing of the largest Lyapunov's exponent. The results of experiments are discussed.
