Thus, automatic detection of epilepsy by analyzing the characteristics obtained from EEG signals has important research implications in the field of clinical medicine. In this paper, the horizontal visibility graph(HVG) algorithm is used to map multifractal EEG signals into complex networks. Then, we study the structure of the networks and explore the nonlinear dynamics properties of the EEG signals inherited from these networks. In order to better describe complex brain behaviors, we use the angle between two connected nodes as the edge weight of the network and construct the weighted horizontal visibility graph(WHVG). In our studies, fractality and multifractality of WHVG are innovatively used to analyze the structure of related networks. However, these methods only analyze the reconstructed dynamical system in general characterizations,they are not sufficient to describe the complex behavior and cannot provide a comprehensive picture of the system. To this effect, we propose an improved multiscale multifractal analysis(MMA) for network, which extends the description of the network dynamics features by focusing on the relationship between the multifractality and the measured scale-free intervals.Furthermore, neural networks are applied to train the above-mentioned parameters for the classification and identification of three kinds of EEG signals, i.e., health, interictal phase, and ictal phase. By evaluating our experimental results, the classification accuracy is 99.0%, reflecting the effectiveness of the WHVG algorithm in extracting the potential dynamic characteristics of EEG signals.展开更多

This paper suggests a method for this purpose, by using a new fractal dimension algorithm and by adjusting the amplitude of the EEG signal in order to obtain maximal separation of high and low fractal dimensions. The emotion was induced by embedding a scary image at 20 seconds in landscape videos of 60 seconds length. The new method did not only detect the onset of the emotion correctly, but also revealed its duration and intensity. The intensity is based on the magnitude and impulse of the fractal dimension signal. It is also shown that Higuchi’s method does not always detect emotion spikes correctly;on the contrary, the region of the expected emotional response can be represented by fractal dimensions smaller than the rest of the signal, whereas the new method directly reveals distinct spikes. The duration of these spikes was 10 - 11 seconds. The magnitude of these spikes varied across the EEG channels. The build-up and cool-down of the emotions can occur with steep and flat gradients.展开更多

Their recording and analysis are currently carried out primarily through the use of computer programs. This paper presents a computerized program (EEGbands) created for Windows operating systems using the Delphi language, and designed to analyze EEG signals and facilitate their quantitative exploration. EEGbands applies Rapid Fourier Transformation to the EEG signals of one or more groups of subjects to obtain absolute and relative power spectra. It also calculates both interhemispheric and intrahemispheric correlation and coherence spectra and, finally, applies parametrical statistical analysis to these spectral parameters calculated for wide frequency EEG bands. Unlike other programs, EEGbands is simple and inexpensive, and rapidly and precisely generates results files with the corresponding statistical significances. The efficacy and versatility of EEGbands allow it to be easily adapted to different experimental and clinical needs.展开更多

The EEG signals of 30 normal samples and 30 patient samples are collected. Based on the preprocessing for the raw data, a computational program for complexity measure is compiled and the complexity measures of all samples are calculated. The mean value and standard error of complexity measure of control group is as 0.33 and 0.10, and the normal group is as 0.53 and 0.08. When the confidence degree is 0.05, the confidence interval of the normal population mean of complexity measures for the control group is (0.2871,0.3652), and (0.4944,0.5552) for the normal group. The statistic results show that the normal samples and patient samples can be clearly distinguished by the value of measures. In clinical medicine, the results can be used to be a reference to evaluate the function or state, to diagnose disease, to monitor the rehabilitation progress of the brain.展开更多

文摘The recently developed machine learning(ML)models have the ability to obtain high detection rate using biomedical signals.Therefore,this article develops an Optimal Sparse Autoencoder based Sleep Stage Classification Model on Electroencephalography(EEG)Biomedical Signals,named OSAE-SSCEEG technique.The major intention of the OSAE-SSCEEG technique is tofind the sleep stage disorders using the EEG biomedical signals.The OSAE-SSCEEG technique primarily undergoes preprocessing using min-max data normalization approach.Moreover,the classification of sleep stages takes place using the Sparse Autoencoder with Smoothed Regularization(SAE-SR)with softmax(SM)approach.Finally,the parameter optimization of the SAE-SR technique is carried out by the use of Coyote Optimization Algorithm(COA)and it leads to boosted classification efficiency.In order to ensure the enhanced performance of the OSAE-SSCEEG technique,a wide ranging simulation analysis is performed and the obtained results demonstrate the betterment of the OSAE-SSCEEG tech-nique over the recent methods.
文摘Brain signal analysis plays a significant role in attaining data related to motor activities.The parietal region of the brain plays a vital role in muscular movements.This approach aims to demonstrate a unique technique to identify an ideal region of the human brain that generates signals responsible for muscular movements;perform statistical analysis to provide an absolute characterization of the signal and validate the obtained results using a prototype arm.This can enhance the practical implementation of these frequency extractions for future neuro-prosthetic applications and the characterization of neurological diseases like Parkinson’s disease(PD).To play out this handling method,electroencepha-logram(EEG)signals are gained while the subject is performing different wrist and elbow movements.Then,the frontal brain signals and just the parietal signals are separated from the obtained EEG signal by utilizing a band pass filter.Then,feature extraction is carried out using Fast Fourier Transform(FFT).Subse-quently,the extraction process is done by Daubechies(db4)and Haar wavelet(db1)in MATLAB and classified using the Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm.The results of the frequency changes that occurred during various wrist move-ments in the parietal region are compared with the frequency changes that occurred in frontal EEG signals.This proposed algorithm also uses the deep learn-ing pattern analysis network to evaluate the matching sequence for each action that takes place.Maximum accuracy of 97.2%and maximum error range of 0.6684%are achieved during the analysis.Results of this research confirm that the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm,along with the newly developed deep learn-ing hybrid PatternNet,provides a more accurate range of frequency changes than any other classifier used in previous works of literature.Based on the analysis,the peak-to-peak value is used to define the threshold for the prototype arm,which performs all the intended degrees of freedom(DOF),verifying the results.These results would aid the specialists in their decision-making by facilitating the ana-lysis and interpretation of brain signals in the field of neuroscience,specifically in tremor analysis in PD.
