In this paper, two algorithms of independent component analysis (fixed-point IC,4 and natural gradient-flexible ICA) are adopted to extract human epileptic feature spikes from interferential signals. Experiment results show that epileptic spikes can be extracted from noise successfully. The kurtosis of the epileptic component signal separated is much better than that of other noisy signals. It shows that ICA is an effective tool to extract epileptic spikes from patients' electroencephalogram EEG and shows promising application to assist physicians to diagnose epilepsy and estimate the epileptogenic region in clinic.展开更多
