Seizure detection using wavelet decomposition of the prediction error signal from a single channel of intra-cranial EEG.
This paper presents a novel patient-specific algorithm for detection of seizures in epileptic patients from a single-channel intra-cranial electroencephaolograph (iEEG) recording. Instead of extracting features from the EEG signal, first the EEG signal is filtered by a prediction error filter (PEF) to compute a prediction error signal. A two-level wavelet decomposition of the prediction error signal leads to two detail signals and one approximate signal. ⋯ The AdaBoost classifier achieves a sensitivity of 98.75% and an average FPR of 0.075 per hour. These results are obtained with leave-one-out cross-validation. In addition, for 13 out of 18 patients, the AdaBoost classifier requires only one feature, while it requires 4 features for the remaining 5 patients.

A unified machine learning method for task-related and resting state fMRI data analysis.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) aims to localize task-related brain activation or resting-state functional connectivity. Most existing fMRI data analysis techniques rely on fixed thresholds to identify active voxels under a task condition or functionally connected voxels in the resting state. Due to fMRI non-stationarity, a fixed threshold cannot adapt to intra- and inter-subject variation and provide a reliable mapping of brain function. ⋯ The method does not require a fixed threshold for the final decision, and can adapt to fMRI non-stationarity. The proposed method was evaluated using experimental data acquired from multiple human subjects. The results indicate that the proposed method can provide reliable mapping of brain function, and is applicable to various quantitative fMRI studies.
