description The automatic classification of epilepsy electroencephalogram (EEG) signals plays a crucial role in diagnosing neurological diseases. Although promising results have been achieved by deep learning methods in this task, capturing the minute abnormal characteristics, contextual information, and long dependencies of EEG signals remains a challenge. To address this challenge, a positional multi-length and mutual-attention (PMM) network is proposed for the automatic classification of epilepsy EEG signals. The PMM network incorporates a positional feature encoding process that extracts minute abnormal characteristics from the EEG signal and utilizes a multi-length feature learning process with a hierarchy residual dilated LSTM (RDLSTM) to capture long contextual dependencies. Furthermore, a mutual-attention feature reinforcement process is employed to learn the global and relative feature dependencies and enhance the discriminative abilities of the network. To validate the effectiveness PMM network, we conduct extensive experiments on the public dataset and the experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the PMM network compared to state-of-the-art methods.
