A Study on Seizure Detection Performance in an Automated Process by Extracting Entropy Features

Millions of people of all ages have been diagnosed with epilepsy all over the world. Electroencephalography (EEG), a quantitative component, is vital in identifying and analyzing epileptic seizures. Manual EEG detection takes a long time and has serious consequences. To prevent this circumstance, the world needs alternative detection technologies. For more than a decade, several strategies and procedures have been used to assist medical doctors in detecting technological improvement. Numerous automated seizure identification frameworks that use machine learning approaches have recently been presented to replace traditional methodologies. However, because multichannel EEG data is unpredictable, selecting optimal channels as well as characteristics and classifying them remain unsolved issues. During automatic signaling, the gadget also emits a noisy signal, making detection and prediction challenging. In this paper, we have tested various entropy features and selected the best features to classify seizure patients. First, we preprocessed the data using IMF of the raw signal, and then entropy features were extracted to classify the epileptic patients. The proposed channel selection method, SVM-GA, works well with our framework and successfully removes redundant channels from the data.
