We present the implementation of seizure detection algorithms based on a minimal number of EEG channels on a parallel ultra-low-power embedded platform. The analyses are based on the CHB-MIT dataset, and include explorations of different…

Early warning for epilepsy patients is crucial for their safety and well-being, in particular to prevent or minimize the severity of seizures. Through the patients' EEG data, we propose a meta learning framework to improve the prediction of…

An ability to map seizure-generating brain tissue, i.e., the seizure onset zone (SOZ), without recording actual seizures could reduce the duration of invasive EEG monitoring for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. A widely-adopted…

Epileptic biomarkers play a crucial role in identifying the origin of seizures, an essential aspect of pre-surgical planning for epilepsy treatment. These biomarkers can vary significantly over time. By studying these temporal fluctuations,…

Epilepsy can be treated with medication, however, $30\%$ of epileptic patients are still drug resistive. Devices like responsive neurostimluation systems are implanted in select patients who may not be amenable to surgical resection.…

Epilepsy is a highly prevalent brain condition with many serious complications arising from it. The majority of patients which present to a clinic and undergo electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring would be unlikely to experience seizures…

A seizure's electrographic dynamics are characterised by its spatiotemporal evolution, also termed dynamical "pathway" and the time it takes to complete that pathway, which results in the seizure's duration. Both seizure pathways and…

Continual Learning addresses the challenge of learning a number of different tasks sequentially. The goal of maintaining knowledge of earlier tasks without re-accessing them starkly conflicts with standard SGD training for artificial neural…

Objective: Epileptic seizures are relatively common in critically-ill children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and thus serve as an important target for identification and treatment. Most of these seizures have no…

We explore the use of neural networks trained with dropout in predicting epileptic seizures from electroencephalographic data (scalp EEG). The input to the neural network is a 126 feature vector containing 9 features for each of the 14 EEG…
