description | In this paper, an efficient, accurate, and nonparametric epilepsy detection and classification approach based on electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is proposed. The proposed approach mainly depends on a feature extraction process that is conducted using a set of statistical tests. Among the many existing tests, those fit with processed data and for the purpose of the proposed approach were used. From each test, various output scalars were extracted and used as features in the proposed detection and classification task. Experiments that were conducted on the basis of a Bonn University dataset showed that the proposed approach had very accurate results (<inline-formula> <math display="inline"> <semantics> <mrow> <mn>98</mn> <mo>.</mo> <mn>4</mn> <mo>%</mo> </mrow> </semantics> </math> </inline-formula>) in the detection task and outperformed state-of-the-art methods in a similar task on the same dataset. The proposed approach also had accurate results (<inline-formula> <math display="inline"> <semantics> <mrow> <mn>94</mn> <mo>.</mo> <mn>0</mn> <mo>%</mo> </mrow> </semantics> </math> </inline-formula>) in the classification task, but it did not outperform state-of-the-art methods in a similar task on the same dataset. However, the proposed approach had less time complexity in comparison with those methods that achieved better results. |
