Six-Center Assessment of CNN-Transformer with Belief Matching Loss for Patient-Independent Seizure Detection in EEG

Neurologists typically identify epileptic seizures from electroencephalograms (EEGs) by visual inspection. This process is often time-consuming, especially for EEG recordings that last hours or days. To expedite the process, a reliable, automated, and patient-independent seizure detector is essential. However, developing a patient-independent...

Analysing the Waste Potential of Solar PV In India

With growing demand for energy and the shift towards renewable energy, countries like India are targeting energy mixture with alternate sources like solar, wind and water. With the current growth of solar energy use in India, it is predicted that high amounts of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) waste would be generated in the near future which left...

Improving automated diagnosis of epilepsy from EEGs beyond IEDs

Objective. Clinical diagnosis of epilepsy relies partially on identifying interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in scalp electroencephalograms (EEGs). This process is expert-biased, tedious, and can delay the diagnosis procedure. Beyond automatically detecting IEDs, there are far fewer studies on automated methods to differentiate epileptic...

Time-Frequency Decomposition of Scalp Electroencephalograms Improves Deep Learning-Based Epilepsy Diagnosis

Epilepsy diagnosis based on Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IEDs) in scalp electroencephalograms (EEGs) is laborious and often subjective. Therefore, it is necessary to build an effective IED detector and an automatic method to classify IED-free versus IED EEGs. In this study, we evaluate features that may provide reliable IED detection...
