Advancing EEG Technology for Affordable and Effective Epilepsy Detection
Abstract: For a proper diagnosis and prompt treatment, epilepsy, a neurological condition marked by recurring seizures, needs to be continuously monitored. Manual interpretation is frequently used in traditional approaches for identifying epileptic seizures from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, which can be laborious and error-prone. In this research, a novel method for automatically detecting epilepsy from EEG data using deep learning algorithms is presented. According to centers for disease control and prevention (CDC) …
