Recognition of epileptic focal point is the important diagnosis when screening the epilepsy patients for latent surgical cures. The accurate localization is challenging one because of the low spatial resolution images with more noisy data.…
Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder and an accurate forecast of seizures would help to overcome the patient's uncertainty and helplessness. In this contribution, we present and discuss a novel methodology for the…
Seizure events can manifest as transient disruptions in the control of movements which may be organized in distinct behavioral sequences, accompanied or not by other observable features such as altered facial expressions. The analysis of…
Epilepsy is a prevalent neurological disorder affecting 50 million individuals worldwide and 1.2 million Americans. There exist millions of pediatric patients with intractable epilepsy, a condition in which seizures fail to come under…
During clinical treatment for epilepsy, the area of the brain thought to be responsible for pathological activity is identified. This identification is typically performed through visual assessment of EEG recordings; however, this is time…
Epileptic seizure prediction from electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings remains challenging due to strong inter-patient variability and the complex temporal structure of neural signals. This paper presents a patient-adaptive transformer…
Understanding how the brain switches from normal activity to an epileptic seizure is essential for improving seizure therapy, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. In particular, seizure onset can be described as a critical…
A Magnetoencephalography (MEG) time-series recording consists of multi-channel signals collected by superconducting sensors, with each signal's intensity reflecting magnetic field changes over time at the sensor location. Automating…
By computerized analysis of cortical activity recorded via fMRI for pediatric epilepsy patients, we implement algorithmic localization of epileptic seizure focus within one of eight cortical lobes. Our innovative machine learning techniques…
Long-term monitoring of patients with epilepsy presents a challenging problem from the engineering perspective of real-time detection and wearable devices design. It requires new solutions that allow continuous unobstructed monitoring and…
Neurologists typically identify epileptic seizures from electroencephalograms (EEGs) by visual inspection. This process is often time-consuming, especially for EEG recordings that last hours or days. To expedite the process, a reliable,…
The analysis of electrophysiological signal of scalp: EEG (electroencephalography), MEG (magnetoencephalography) and depth (intracerebral EEG) IEEG is a way to delimit epileptogenic zone (EZ). These epileptic signals present two different…
Understanding brain dynamics in epilepsy is critical for establishing rigorous control objectives that enable new therapeutic methods to mitigate seizure occurrence. In multichannel electrocorticography (ECoG) recordings acquired in 21…
Objective: Continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring is associated with lower mortality in critically ill patients, however it is underutilized due to the difficulty of manually interpreting prolonged streams of cEEG data. Here we present a novel…
Seizure activity is a ubiquitous and pernicious pathophysiology that, in principle, should yield to mathematical treatments of (neuronal) ensemble dynamics - and therefore interventions on stochastic chaos. A seizure can be characterised as…
Epilepsy, affecting approximately 50 million people globally, is characterized by abnormal brain activity and remains challenging to treat. The diagnosis of epilepsy relies heavily on electroencephalogram (EEG) data, where specialists…
Implantable, closed-loop devices for automated early detection and stimulation of epileptic seizures are promising treatment options for patients with severe epilepsy that cannot be treated with traditional means. Most approaches for early…
Epilepsy is a chronic, noncommunicable brain disorder, and sudden seizure onsets can significantly impact patients' quality of life and health. However, wearable seizure-predicting devices are still limited, partly due to the bulky size of…
The time series captured by a single scalp electrode (plus the reference electrode) of refractory epileptic patients is used to forecast seizures susceptibility. The time series is preprocessed, segmented, and each segment transformed into…
Epilepsy affects nearly 1% of the global population, of which two thirds can be treated by anti-epileptic drugs and a much lower percentage by surgery. Diagnostic procedures for epilepsy and monitoring are highly specialized and…
