Epilepsy is the second most commonly occurring neurological disorder next to stroke. It is characterized by hyper-synchronous and hyper-activity firing of the neurons. With the help of Electroencephalography (EEG), diagnosis is achieved by monitoring the patient carefully. As the recordings of the EEG signals are enormous for computing and further analysis, the dimensions are reduced with the help...
A plethora of disorders are found in human oral mucosa. A variety and huge number of lesions and diseases in human oral mucosa have been clinically identified and classified. Most lesions have the possibility to develop into oral cancer. The initial diagnosis of oral cancer is to inspect the ocular regions carefully and register the oral cavity of the patient as true-color digital images. The decision...
One of the major disorders affecting the human brain is epilepsy and it impairs the daily lives of the patients. Epilepsy is caused by sudden and random incidence of seizures. One of the most powerful tool for diagnosing various neurological disorders including epilepsy is Electroencephalogram (EEG). Recognizing the people who have a disorder of the brain by means of inspection of EEG signals visually...
To control the coordination between various muscles and nerves in the human body, brain is utilized. Due to the sudden, unexpected and transient electrical disturbances of the brain, it results in an acute disease called epilepsy which is characterized by recurrent seizures leading to a lot of temporary changes in behaviour, perception, movement and health. Epilepsy occurs due to the rapid firing...
Epilepsy is one of the chronic brain disorders which affect the entire lifestyle of the person. It is characterized by recurrent seizures which are nothing but short episodes of involuntary activity or movement. For the diagnosis of epilepsy, detecting seizures is a vital step. In the clinical contexts, to detect the seizures, Electroencephalography (EEG) is used by means of visual scanning. The main...
After stroke, the most prevalent neurological disorder is epilepsy. The sudden occurrence of the seizures which are unpredictable in nature can cause great harm to epileptic patients thereby leading to a poor quality of lifestyle for them. The transient abnormal behaviour of neurons in the brain is seizures which limits the mental and physical activities of the patient. To measure the electrical potential...
The main aim of this research is to find the feasibility of Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) in optimization of fuzzy outputs for epilepsy risk level classification from EEG signals. One of the prominent neurological disorders affecting the nervous system is epilepsy. Due to the hyperactivity of neurons in certain regions of the brain epileptic seizures occur. To classify the epilepsy risk levels...
In the arena of biomedical engineering, the classification and analysis of epilepsy from Electroencephalography (EEG) signals forms an important area of research. When the neurons get hyper excited, seizures occur causing a lot of inconvenience and trouble to the patient. For the study of the predominant abnormalities in the cerebral cortex of the brain, EEG is used widely. Due to the long nature...
One of the global neurological disorders affecting the cerebral cortex of the brain is epilepsy. It is considered as a persistent neurological disorder that exists since a long period of time. Characterized by continuous, spontaneous and recurrent seizures, they cause a great harm to the patient. The activities of the neurons can be easily recorded by Electroencephalogram (EEG). A mandatory requirement...
As a result of sudden and excessive electrical discharges in a specific group of brain cells called neurons, epilepsy occurs and is usually for a brief period. It can occur in various parts of the brain and the patient can experience different symptoms depending on the occurrence of the excessive discharges. So the electrical impulses generated due to the nerve firing in the brain can be measured...
In the field of data mining and computational intelligence, many researchers have developed a lot of feasible solutions for the breast cancer detection and classification. Breast Cancer is a malignant tumour that develops from the cells of the breast. In underdeveloped, developing and developed nations, the major cause of death among women is due to breast cancer. To mitigate the death caused by breast...
One of the age old neurological disorders found in human beings is epilepsy. It is witnessed by the abnormal electrical activities in the brain which causes recurring seizures, therefore the patient suffers from loss of consciousness. Due to the random nature of the seizures, the patients may not be aware of it and so it increases the risk of physical injury. Due to the disturbed brain activity, epileptic...
Next to stroke, the epilepsy is one of the most serious neurological disorders. Due to the hyperactive firing of neurons on a cellular level, epilepsy is caused. The activities of the cortical regions are recorded with the help of Electroencephalogram (EEG) which helps in the diagnosis of epilepsy. The normal patterns of the activities of neurons becomes severely disturbed in the case of epilepsy,...
In the past two decades, the Electroencephalograph (EEG) dependent Brain Computer Interface (BCI) for analyzing and detecting the mental disorders especially epilepsy has triggered a lot of research interest in both biomedical industrial side and academia. The main ingredient of EEG dependent BCI are preprocessing of EEG signals, feature extraction of EEG signals and classification of EEG signals...
In this present generation, more than 1% of the whole world's population is affected by this seizure disorder. Due to genetic predispositions like tumours, strokes and drug misuse, epilepsy is caused. Epilepsy is a common brain disorder in which cluster of neuronal signals function abnormally. For preventing seizures, medications are available but only some patients can respond well to the medication...
Characterized by transient, sudden and recurrent electrical disturbances in the cortical regions of the brain, epilepsy can be mentioned as one of the most common neurological disorders. Certain disorders in the nervous systems also cause this fatal condition epilepsy. The activities of the brain can be monitored through Electroencephalogram (EEG) and thus it has become a vital tool for the analysis...
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a powerful tool for the diagnosis of neurological disorders. Since its discovery, the EEG has been used for the diagnosis of epilepsy, for trauma assessment, for sleep research, and for the analysis of higher brain functions. The EEG is highly dependent upon the availability of high quality instrumentation, and almost from the beginning, automated methods of signal processing...
EEG is the most commonly used technique for the monitoring of the brain activities in the case of epilepsy. Generally, the visual encephalographers and the expert neurologists analyze the EEG records and it is quite time consuming. In the EEG recordings, several noisy characteristics are present making it difficult for the experts to differentiate between an artifact and seizure in raw EEG signals...
One of the most commonly occurring disorder in the brain is epilepsy and it is characterized by the sudden onset of recurrent seizures. When the electrical discharge in the brain bursts suddenly in an abnormal fashion it leads to epilepsy. Epilepsy is a neurological disorder of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and causes great trouble to mankind because of the recurrence of the seizures. The EEG provides...
The electrical activity of the brain can be studied thoroughly through the recordings of the Electroencephalography (EEG) signals and is considered as a vital tool for the analysis and diagnosis of neurological diseases like tumours of the brain, epilepsy and other cognitive disorders. Due to the continuous electrical discharges from the cortex of the cerebrum, epilepsy occurs which results in several...
