癫痫发作检测可以实现脑电分类和病灶定位,对癫痫的临床治疗具有重要意义。针对大数据量、高特征值空间长程脑电的快速和准确分类问题,提出一种基于最大相关和最小冗余准则及极限学习机的癫痫发作检测方法。对脑电信号进行短时傅里叶变换,并选取能量时频分布为特征,利用基于最大相关和最小冗余准则的方法进行特征选择,并使用极限学习机、支持向量机和反向传播算法对癫痫不同状态进行分类和判别。实验结果表明,极限学习机的分类准确率和训练速度两方面性能优于支持向量机和反向传播算法,发作间期和发作期的分类准确率达到98%以上,训练时间仅为0.8s,所提方法能够实时准确地检测癫痫发作。

Seizure detection based on max-relevance and min-redundancy criteria and extreme learning machine

The seizure detection is important for the localization and classification of epileptic seizures. In order to solve the problem brought by large amount of data and high feature space in EEG (Electroencephalograph) for quickly and accurately detecting the seizures, a method based on max-Relevance and Min-Redundancy (mRMR) criteria and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) was proposed. The time-frequency measures by Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) were extracted as features, and the large set of features were selected based on max-relevance and min-redundancy criteria. The states were classified using the extreme learning machine, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Back Propagation (BP) algorithm. The result shows that the performance of ELM is better than SVM and BP algorithms in terms of computation time and classification accuracy. The classification accuracy rate of interictal durations and seizures can reach more than 98%, and the computation efficiency is only 0.8s. This approach can detect epileptic seizures accurately in real-time.
