EXTRACTION OF REPRODUCIBLE EPILEPTIC PATTERNS ON SCALP EEG

摘要

The objective of this work is to characterize evolution of the similarities in the dynamic of epileptic seizures, using non invasive EEG. A comprehensive method is presented and applied to temporal lobe epileptic seizures. It is based on the degree of correlation between scalp electrodes at seizure onset, determined by a nonlinear regression analysis. Results show that reproducible patterns may be extracted from different seizure of the same patient and confirm the existence of different subtypes of temporal lobe epilepsy.
