摘要

The detection of seizure onset and events using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are important tasks in epilepsy research.The literature available on seizure detection has discussed the implementation of advanced signal processing algorithms using tools accessed over the cloud.However,seizure monitoring application needs near sensor processing due to privacy and latency issues.In this paper,a real time seizure detection system has been implemented using an embedded system.The proposed system is based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and tunable-Q wavelet transform (TQWT) algorithms.The analysis and classification of non-stationary EEG signals require the wavelet transform with high Q-factor.However,direct use of TQWT increases the computational complexity of feature extraction from multivariate EEG signals.In this paper,the first step is to process the signal by using EEMD to obtain 8 intrinsic mode functions (IMFs).The Kraskov (KraEn),sample (SampEn),and permutation (PermEn) entropy features of IMFs are extracted and based on optimum values,and 4 IMFs are decomposed using TQWT.Secondly,centered correntropy (CenCorrEn) features of the 1st and 16th sub-band of TQWT have been used as classifier inputs.The performance of multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLPNN),least squares support vector machine (LSSVM),and random forest (RF) classifiers has been tested on the multichannel EEG data recorded from a local hospital.The RF classifier has produced the highest accuracy of 96.2％ in classifying the signals.The proposed scheme has been employed in developing an embedded seizure detection system to assist neurologists in making seizure diagnostic decisions.
