Epilepsy is a neurological disorder classified as the second most serious neurological disease known to humanity, after stroke. Localization of the epileptogenic zone is an important step for epileptic patient treatment, which starts with…
High-frequency oscillations (HFOs) are a new biomarker for identifying the epileptogenic zone. Mapping HFO-generating regions can improve the precision of resection sites in patients with refractory epilepsy. However, detecting HFOs remains…
We describe a new method to automatically discriminate between patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and elderly controls, based on multidimensional classification of hippocampal shape features. This…
In this work, we present a neuromorphic system that combines for the first time a neural recording headstage with a signal-to-spike conversion circuit and a multi-core spiking neural network (SNN) architecture on the same die for recording,…
Hippocampus segmentation on magnetic resonance imaging is of key importance for the diagnosis, treatment decision and investigation of neuropsychiatric disorders. Automatic segmentation is an active research field, with many recent models…
The hippocampus is one of the most studied neuroanatomical structures due to its involvement in attention, learning, and memory as well as its atrophy in ageing, neurological, and psychiatric diseases. Hippocampal shape changes, however,…
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders that can be diagnosed through electroencephalogram (EEG), in which the following epileptic events can be observed: pre-ictal, ictal, post-ictal, and interictal. In this paper, we…
The diagnosis of epilepsy generally includes a visual inspection of EEG recorded data by the Neurologist, with the purpose of checking the occurrence of transient waveforms called interictal epileptiform discharges. These waveforms have…
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…
Epilepsy is a neurological brain disorder which life threatening and gives rise to recurrent seizures that are unprovoked. It occurs due to the abnormal chemical changes in our brain. Over the course of many years, studies have been…
Epileptic seizures are neurological disorders characterized by abnormal and excessive electrical activity in the brain, resulting in recurrent seizure events. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are widely used for seizure diagnosis due to…
Epilepsy is a well-known neuronal disorder that can be identified by interpretation of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. Usually, the length of an EEG signal is quite long which is challenging to interpret manually. In this work, we…
This paper presents an epilepsy detection method based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and Machine learning classifiers. Here DWT has been used for feature extraction as it provides a better decomposition of the signals in different…
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder with a significant prevalence. However, there is still no adequate technological support to enable epilepsy detection and continuous outpatient monitoring in everyday life. Hyperdimensional (HD)…
Hyperdimensional computing is a promising novel paradigm for low-power embedded machine learning. It has been applied on different biomedical applications, and particularly on epileptic seizure detection. Unfortunately, due to differences…
