Abstract : A Brain Computer Interface (BCI) with seizure prediction. A digital image processing method is to be used in. In machine learning, multiple kernel learning- support vector machines (MKL-SVMs, also support vector networks]) are supervised learning models with associated learning algorithms that analyze data used for classification and regression analysis. The clustering algorithm which provides an improvement to the support vector machines is called support vector clustering and is often used in industrial applications either when data is not labeled or when only some data is labeled as a preprocessing for a classification pass. Epilepsy is characterized by a long-term risk of recurrent seizures. These seizures may present in several ways depending on the part of the brain involved and the person's age.

I. INTRODUCTION

An epileptic seizure (colloquially a fit) is a brief episode of signs or symptoms due to abnormal

excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in

the brain.[1] The outward effect can vary from

uncontrolled jerking movement (tonic-clonic seizure) to as subtle as a momentary loss of awareness (absence seizure). Diseases of the brain characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate epileptics

seizures are collectively called epilepsy[1][2].The most

common type (60%) of seizures are convulsive.[21] Of

these, one-third begin as generalized seizures from the start, affecting both hemispheres of the

brain.[21] Two-thirds begin as partial seizures (which

affect one hemisphere of the brain) which may then

progress to generalized seizures.[21] The remaining

40% of seizures are non-convulsive. An example of this type is the absence seizure, which presents as a decreased level of consciousness and usually lasts

about 10 seconds.[22][23]

Partial seizures are often preceded by certain

experiences, known as auras.[24] They include sensory

(visual, hearing, or smell), psychic, autonomic, and

motor phenomena.[22] Jerking activity may start in a

specific muscle group and spread to surrounding muscle groups in which case it is known as

a Jacksonian march.[25] Automatisms may occur,

which are non-consciously-generated activities and mostly simple repetitive movements like smacking of the lips or more complex activities such as attempts

to pick up something.[25]

There are six main types of generalized seizures: tonic,clonic, tonic, clonic, myoclonic, absen

ce, and atonic seizures.[26]They all involve loss of

consciousness and typically happen without warning.

Tonic-clonic seizures occur with a

contraction of the limbs followed by their extension along with arching of the back which lasts 10– 30 seconds (the tonic phase). A cry may be heard due to contraction of the chest muscles, followed by a shaking of the limbs in unison (clonic phase).

Tonic seizures produce constant contractions of the muscles. A person often turns blue as breathing is stopped. In clonic seizures there is shaking of the limbs in unison. After the shaking has stopped it may take 10–30 minutes for the person to return to normal; this period is called the "postictal state" or "postictal phase."

Loss of bowel or bladder control may occur

during a seizure.[27] The tongue may be bitten at

either the tip or on the sides during a

seizure.[28] In tonic-clonic seizure, bites to the sides

are more common.[28] Tongue bites are also relatively

common inpsychogenic non-epileptic seizures.[28]

Myoclonic seizures involve spasms of

muscles in either a few areas or all over.[29] Absence

seizures can be subtle with only a slight turn of the

head or eye blinking.[22] The person does not fall over

and returns to normal right after it ends.[22]Atonic

seizures involve the loss of muscle activity for

greater than one second.[25] This typically occurs on

both sides of the body.[25]

About 6% of those with epilepsy have seizures that are often triggered by specific events

and are known as reflex seizures.[30] Those

with reflex epilepsy have seizures that are only

triggered by specific stimuli.[31] Common triggers

include flashing lights and sudden noises.[30] In

certain types of epilepsy, seizures happen more often

during sleep,[32] and in other types they occur almost

only when sleeping.[33]

In Ancient Rome people did not eat or drink with the same pottery as that used by someone who

was affected.[12] People of the time would spit on

their chest believing that this would keep the problem

from affected them.[12] According to Apuleius and

other ancient physicians, in order detect epilepsy it was common to lit a piece of gagates, whose smoke's

would trigger the seizure.[123] Occasionally a

spinning potter's wheel was used, perhaps a reference

to photosensitive epilepsy.[3]

In most cultures, persons with epilepsy have been stigmatized, shunned, or even imprisoned; in

the Salpêtrière, the birthplace of modern

neurology, Jean-Martin Charcot found people with epilepsy side-by-side with the mentally ill, those with

chronic syphilis, and the criminally

insane.[1] In ancient Rome, epilepsy was known as

the morbus comitialis('disease of the assembly hall') and was seen as a curse from the gods. In northern Italy, epilepsy was once traditionally known as Saint

Valentine's malady.[16]

II. EXISTING METHOD

Existing method of a multichannel patient-specific seizure detection method based on the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and support vector machine (SVM) classifier. The EMD is used

to extract features from intracranial

electroencephalography (EEG). A machine-learning algorithm is used as a classifier to discriminate between seizure and nonseizure intracranial EEG epochs. A postprocessing algorithm is proposed to reject artifacts and increase the robustness of the method. Evaluated using 463 hours of intracranial EEG recordings from 17 patients with a total of 51 seizures in the Freiburg EEG database. The most of the existing seizure detection systems, including an average sensitivity of 92%, false detection rate (FDR) of 0.17/hour, and time delay (TD) of 12 sec. Moreover, the FDR could be further reduced by a TD extension.

Given its high sensitivity and low FDR, the proposed patient-specific seizure detection method can greatly assist clinical staff with automatically marking seizures in long-term EEG or detecting seizure onset online with high performance. Early and accurate seizure detection using this method may serve as a practical tool for planning epilepsy interventions.

or conditioning methods to preprocess the raw EEG signals when we use our recurrence time method. The good results presented below thus suggest that the method is very reliable.

III. PROPOSED METHOD 1.Notation and Definitions

Epilepsy is a group of neurological

diseases characterized by this seizure are mainly

in epileptic seizures.[1][2] Epileptic seizures are

episodes that can vary from brief and nearly

undetectable to long periods of vigorous

shaking.[3] These episodes can result in physical

injuries including occasionally broken bones.[3] In

epilepsy, seizures tend to recur, and have no

immediate underlying cause.[1] Isolated seizures that

are provoked by a specific cause such as poisoning

are not deemed to represent epilepsy.[4] People with

epilepsy in some areas of the world

experience stigma due to the condition.[3]

The cause of most cases of epilepsy is unknown, although some people develop epilepsy as the result of brain injury, stroke, brain tumors,

infections of the brain, and birth

defects.[3] Known genetic mutations are directly

linked to a small proportion of cases.[5][6]Epileptic

seizures are the result of excessive and abnormal

nerve cell activity in the cortex of the brain.[4] The

diagnosis involves ruling out other conditions that might cause similar symptoms such as fainting and determining if another cause of seizures is present such as alcohol withdrawal or electrolyte problems. This may be partly done by imaging the brain and performing blood tests. A generic block diagram is shown on figure 1.1 Epilepsy can often be confirmed with an electroencephalogram (EEG), but a normal

test does not rule out the condition.[5]

Fig. 1.1. Generic block diagram of a seizure prediction process.

Approximately 325 millon people

experience within their lifetime. Epilepsy occurs in a number of other animals including dogs and cats and

is the most common brain disorder in dogs.[16] It is

typically treated with anticonvulsants such as phenobarbital or bromide in dogs and phenobarbital

in cats.[17] Imepitoin is also used in dogs.[18] While

generalized seizures in horses are fairly easy to diagnose, it may be more difficult in non-generalized

seizures and EEGs may be useful.[19]

A figure 1.2 shows on Epilepsy monitoring is typically done:

 to distinguish epileptic seizures from other types

of spells, such as psychogenic non-epileptic

seizures, syncope (fainting),

sub-corticalmovement

disorders and migraine variants.

 to characterize seizures for the purposes of

treatment

 to localize the region of brain from which a

seizure originates for work-up of possible seizure surgery

Additionally, EEG may be used to monitor certain procedures:

 to monitor the depth of anesthesia

 as an indirect indicator of cerebral perfusion

in carotid endarterectomy

 to monitor amobarbital effect during the Wada

test

EEG can also be used in intensive care units for brain function monitoring:

Figure 1.3. Human EEG artifacts

If a patient with epilepsy is being considered for resective surgery, it is often necessary to localize the focus (source) of the epileptic brain activity with a resolution greater than what is provided by scalp EEG. A figure 1.3 shows on the human EEG artefacts waveform. This is because the cerebrospinal fluid, skull and scalp smear the electrical potentials recorded by scalp EEG. In these cases, neurosurgeons typically implant strips and grids of electrodes (or penetrating depth electrodes) under the dura mater, through either a craniotomy or a burr hole. The

recording of these signals is referred to

as electrocorticography (ECoG), subdural EEG

(sdEEG) or intracranial EEG (icEEG)--all terms for the same thing. The signal recorded from ECoG is on a different scale of activity than the brain activity recorded from scalp EEG. Low voltage, high frequency components that cannot be seen easily (or at all) in scalp EEG can be seen clearly in ECoG. Further, smaller electrodes (which cover a smaller parcel of brain surface) allow even lower voltage, faster components of brain activity to be seen. Some

clinical sites record from penetrating

microelectrodes.[1] EEG may be done in all pediatric

patients presenting with first onset afebrile or

complex febrile seizures.[9] EEG is not indicated for

diagnosing headache.[10] Recurring headache is a

common pain problem, and this procedure is sometimes used in a search for a diagnosis, but it has

no advantage over routine clinical evaluation.[10]

Data Formation

A routine clinical EEG recording typically lasts 20–30 minutes (plus preparation time) and usually involves recording from scalp electrodes. Routine EEG is typically used in the following clinical circumstances:

 to distinguish epileptic seizures from other types

of spells, such as psychogenic non-epileptic

seizures, syncope (fainting), sub-cortical

movement disorders and migraine variants.

 To differentiate epilepsy cases and their

"organic" encephalopathy or delirium from its

primary psychiatric syndromes such as catatonia

 to serve as an adjunct test of brain death

 to prognosticate, in certain instances, in patients

with coma

 to determine whether to wean anti-epileptic

medications

At times, a routine EEG is not sufficient, particularly when it is necessary to record a patient while he/she is having a seizure. In this case, the patient may be admitted to the hospital for days or even weeks, while EEG is constantly being recorded (along with time-synchronized video and audio recording). A recording of an actual seizure (i.e., an ictal recording, rather than an inter-ictal recording of a possibly epileptic patient at some period between seizures) can give significantly better information about whether or not a spell is an epileptic seizure and the focus in the brain from which the seizure activity emanates.

If a patient with epilepsy is being considered for resective surgery, it is often necessary to localize the focus (source) of the epileptic brain activity with a resolution greater than what is provided by scalp EEG. This is because the cerebrospinal fluid, skull and scalp smear the electrical potentials recorded by scalp EEG.

respectively, containing all values of the specified time-window of the EEG signals. Corresponding transformed signals R and C are determined after applying Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) on the reference and current epochs as follows:

R =ϕ(r) (1)

C =ϕ(c) (2)

where θ is the FFT function.

A phase correlation δ of r and c is then determined and it is using transformed signals by applying inverse FFT and shift FFT (these functions are available in Matlab) as follows:

δ = ϑ ϕ −1 (e j (∠R −∠C ) ) (3)

where ϑ is the FFT shift function and ∠ indicates the

angle or phase. Then the displacement between two epochs is determined as follows:

k = max(δ (t)) −π (4)

where the middle position of the epoch is considered as π and t is any sample position within the epoch.

The phase-matched reference epoch is calculated as follows, where inverse FFT is applied on the frequency current and phase-matched reference epochs as follows:

ε =c−ψ. (5)

Then discrete cosine transformation (DCT) is applied on th e phase-matched error in order to calculate the tra nsformed residual as follows:

4.Undulaterd Local Feature Extraction (ULF)

The calculation of flu ctuation and deviation is performed using a 10 seco nd epoch with 128 samples shifted (the justification of se lecting epoch size and shifting size is given in Sections IV .A and IV.B respectively). Unlike the technique in [3 2], the fluctuation function is refined as follows for the current epoch:

f =ζ (c) −δ (6)

Fig. 4.1. Extracted local feature using fluctuation

and deviation.

w here ζ is the standard deviation function applied on th e source (i.e. original) sig nal of each epoch, and δ is th e general artifacts component of the EE G signal. In the experiments, δ = 4 is used. Unlike the technique in [32], w e shifted the epoch by 128 samples (in Equation (11)) and calculated f for each shifted epoch. Thus, for a gi ven 10 -seco nd epoch it has 20 values of f. T he deviation function of the current epoch is also redefined as follows:

1 β

d = ∑

x= 1

c(t) −γ (7)

β

w here γ is the mode of the original signal c.

℘= w1 ×d 2 + w2 × f 2 (8)

As 128 samples are shifted for the shifted epoch to

calculate the cost function℘ (Fig. 5(a)), the cost

function quantifies 20 values of a 10 seconds epoch. From the current e poch, the energy of cost functions of the flu ctuation and deviation (ECFD) is calculated as the second feature (Fig. 5(b)):

n

Φ = ∑℘l2 (9)

l=1

The detailed proce ss of extracting a local feature is presented in Fig. 4.1.

In the first step, if at least three epochs have a classified value as ‗1‘ then all five epochs are considered ‗1‘. In the second step, six 50 seconds windows are to be considered to make a final decision. If at least two 50 second windows have ‗1‘ results then the entire five minute window is regulated as ‗1‘ otherwise it is ‗0‘.

It is to be noted that in order to prevent the impending seizure by administrating drugs [1], the

five minute window is sufficient. The seizure

prediction result as a decision is taken in each five minute window based on the two-step decision. In each step, different sized windows were investigated; however the proposed two-step method is the best regarding the PA and FPR.

5. Classifications

In contrast to the classification of

(6)

disease being identified (e.g. hippocampal

sclerosis).[62] The name of the diagnosis finally made

depends on the available diagnostic results and the applied definitions and classifications (of seizures and epilepsies) and its respective terminology.

The ability to categorize a case of epilepsy into a specific syndrome occurs more often with children since the onset of seizures is commonly

early.[45] Less serious examples arebenign rolandic

epilepsy (2.8 per 100,000), childhood absence

epilepsy (0.8 per 100,000) and juvenile myoclonic

epilepsy (0.7 per 100,000).[45] Severe syndromes with

diffuse brain dysfunction caused, at least partly, by some aspect of epilepsy, are also referred to as epileptic encephalopathies. These are associated with frequent seizures that are resistant to treatment and severe cognitive dysfunction, for instance Lennox–

Gastaut syndrome and West syndrome.[10] Genetics is

believed to play an important role in epilepsies by a number of mechanisms. Simple and complex modes of inheritance have been identified for some of them. However, extensive screening have failed to identify

many single gene variants of large effect.[71] More

recent exome and genome sequencing studies have begun to reveal a number of de novo gene mutations

that are responsible for some epileptic

encephalopathies, including CHD2 and SYNGAP1.

Figure 5.1 shows that a classification and external resources

Diagnostic imaging by CT scan and MRI is recommended after a first non-febrile seizure to detect structural problems in and around the

brain.[62] MRI is generally a better imaging test

except when bleeding is suspected, for which CT is

more sensitive and more easily available.[16] If

someone attends the emergency room with a seizure but returns to normal quickly, imaging tests may be

done at a later point.[16] If a person has a previous

diagnosis of epilepsy with previous imaging, repeating the imaging is usually not needed even if

there are subsequent seizures.[62]

For adults, the testing of electrolyte, blood glucose and calcium levels is important to rule out

problems with these as

causes.[62] An electrocardiogram can rule out

problems with the rhythm of the heart.[62] A lumbar

puncture may be useful to diagnose a central nervous

system infection but is not routinely needed.[16] In

children additional tests may be required such as urine biochemistry and blood testing looking for metabolic disorders.

Figure 5.1 A classification and external resources

A high blood prolactin level within the first 20 minutes following a seizure may be useful to help

confirm an epileptic seizure as opposed

to psychogenic non-epileptic seizure.[17][18] Serum

prolactin level is less useful for detecting partial

seizures.[19] If it is normal an epileptic seizure is still

possible[18] and a serum prolactin does not separate

epileptic seizures from syncope.[20] It is not

recommended as a routine part of the diagnosis of

epilepsy.[42]

IV. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS A. Analysis

A statistical framework for this comparison, the expected performance of a chance predictor according to a predefined scoring rule, which is in turn used as the control in a hypothesis test. the expected performance of chance prediction using Monte Carlo simulations that generate random, simulated seizure warnings of variable duration.

A figure a.1 represents the true and false warnings of alarm presiction of seizures and then figure a.2 shows that moving window anaklysis of the seizures A new test metric, the difference between algorithm and chance sensitivities given a constraint on proportion of time spent in warning, and use a simple spectral power-based measure to demonstrate the utility of the metric in four patients undergoing intracranial EEG monitoring during evaluation for epilepsy surgery. The methods are broadly applicable to other scoring rules. We present them as an advance in the statistical evaluation of a practical seizure advisory system.

A solution is suggested by the earlier observation that the sensitivity of a chance predictor

is approximately equal to ρw, the proportion of time

in warning. Therefore, the difference between

observed and chance sensitivity, subject to

matched ρw, is a powerful metric of predictive ability.

Figure a.1.Analysis of true and false warnings

Figure a.2.Moving Window analysis

It also offers appropriate behavior for limiting cases, being equal to zero if the warning

light is either permanently illuminated or

extinguished. For an algorithm with observed

sensitivity Sn and proportion of time in warningρw, it

follows from (1) and (2) that the sensitivity

improvement-over-chance metric is calculated as:

Sn−Snc=Sn−1+exp(−λwηw+(1−e−λwηw0)), (4)

where

λw=−1ηwln(1−ρw). (5)

In general, exact permutation tests may be

applied to the Studentized and/or rank-ordered observations involved in the sensitivity improvement

metric calculation to account for unknown

distributions and multiple-comparison testing in a patient population.

B.Patient and Data Characteristics

Multichannel digital intracranial EEG

recordings were obtained from Epilepsy Monitoring Units (EMUs) in Europe and the United States, with approval of the Institutional Review Boards of

universities contributing data to NeuroVista

Corporation under appropriate material transfer agreements, using approved (NBs/CE Mark in Europe, FDA in the US) clinical EMU equipment.

Recordings were meticulously checked for

misplugged or mislabeled electrodes, accurate seizure annotations, and electrode placement (validated by MRI). Only complete, continuous recordings were used for the present application, covering each patient's entire EMU stay. Data were normalized to have a common 16-bit dynamic range rescaled to microvolts, and sampling rate of 400 Hz.

channels of cortical potentials including electrodes placed on and surrounding the seizure focus, as well as a reference electrode well-separated from the focus. Multichannel referential EEG was first digitally remontaged to average reference. Each channel was pre-whitened by taking the first forward

difference, bandpass filtered to beta band

(implemented as 16-32 Hz corner frequencies in a Kaiser window FIR filter design), then subjected to feature extraction in a 5-second sliding window scheme displaced in 1-second increments. For each channel, the output feature every 1 second was the beta power

β[m]=12000∑k=m−1999mx2β[k], ----> (6)

where xβ[m] is the beta-filtered signal at time

index m. A feature vector at each time was formed by collecting the beta powers of all channels.The feature vectors collected over decimated time samples covering both preictal and interictal periods formed training inputs with which kNN classifiers (k=15 neighbors) were induced. The training outputs stored by the kNNs were integers {1,2} representing ―interictal‖ vs. ―90-minute preictal‖ classes.

This latter label was used for immediate training, keeping in mind that final ―preictal‖ labels are revealed only during actual scoring/testing in our framework (e.g., a warning could end up being 5 hours long thus scored as ―preictal,‖ with specificity-related metrics controlling for this asymmetry). When confronted with a new feature vector, kNN looks up the nearest neighbor in its training table, however, the simple estimate of preictal posterior probability (fraction of nearest neighbors belonging to preictal class) was employed instead. No adjustment was used for prior probabilities of the classes. When run as time-serial probability estimator, the kNN output was 60-point-Chebyshev filtered in preparation for smooth predictions. A prediction alert was issued

whenever the smooth probability output

met/exceeded a threshold. The threshold was algorithmically set such that, in-sample, percentage of time in warning tracked to 25%, however, the

relation to actual measured ρw over a test set is

inexact. This internal threshold can be fixed arbitrarily (recall our comparison to chance requires

only some ―final‖ Sn and ρw). The output of all

predictors were subjected to persistence processing

with parameters ηw = 90 minutes and ηw0 = 1 minute.

If seizures clustered within a 4-hour period, only the leading (first) seizure in that cluster was enforced for prediction scoring purposes, for reasons similar to those of earthquake prediction—the goal is prediction of main events rather than detection of aftershocks. The scoring of follow-up clustered seizures was treated as deleted or never-seen data. For example, if original data had seizure onsets indicated as [0 0 0 0

1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1], the removal of clustered seizures looked like [0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1]. Once these labels were fixed, the treatment of candidate predictors and the theoretical chance predictor against which we compare remains equitable and consistent with the theory. Without loss

of generality, the estimation of expected Sn, ρw,

and rw for each patient was based on N-fold cross

validation, where N is the number of leading seizures, with data assigned to folds in approximately 3-hour epochs.

These results are presented not to suggest that they are adequate for a clinical seizure warning device, but rather to illustrate the translation of the methods presented in this paper into a practical warning system for patient use. A more accurate prediction of algorithm would be required to obtain clinically

useful results, along with careful consideration of

performance targets required for clinical utility , which might vary according to individual patients.

When classification of epilepsies focuses on the underlying causes. When a person is admitted to hospital after an epileptic seizure the diagnostic workup results preferably in the seizure itself being classified (e.g. tonic-clonic) and in the underlying

disease being identified (e.g. hippocampal

sclerosis).[62]

Brain Computer Interface (BCI)

A brain–computer interface (BCI),

sometimes called a mind-machine

interface (MMI), direct neural interface (DNI),

or brain–machine interface (BMI), is a direct

communication pathway between an enhanced or wired brain and an external device. BCIs are often

directed at researching, mapping, assisting,

augmenting, or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. Neuroprosthetics is an area of neuroscience concerned with neural prostheses, that is, using artificial devices to replace the function of impaired nervous systems and brain related problems, or of sensory organs. The most widely

used neuroprosthetic device is the cochlear

implant which, as of December 2010, had been

implanted in approximately 220,000 people

worldwide.[7] There are also several neuroprosthetic

devices that aim to restore vision, including retinal implants.

The difference between BCIs and

neuroprosthetics is mostly in how the terms are used: neuroprosthetics typically connect the nervous system to a device, whereas BCIs usually connect the brain (or nervous system) with a computer system. Practical neuroprosthetics can be linked to any part of

the nervous system—for example, peripheral

nerves—while the term "BCI" usually designates a narrower class of systems which interface with the central nervous system.

The terms are sometimes, however, used interchangeably. Neuroprosthetics and BCIs seek to achieve the same aims, such as restoring sight, hearing, movement, ability to communicate, and

even cognitive function. Both use similar

experimental methods and surgical techniques.

Invasive BCI research has targeted repairing damaged sight and providing new functionality for people with paralysis. Invasive BCIs are implanted directly into the grey matter of the brain during neurosurgery. Because they lie in the grey matter, invasive devices produce the highest quality signals of BCI devices but are prone to scar-tissue build-up, causing the signal to become weaker, or even

ii. Movement[edit]

BCIs focusing on motor

neuroprosthetics aim to either restore movement in individuals with paralysis or provide devices to assist them, such as interfaces with computers or robot arms.

iii. Partially invasive BCIs[edit]

Partially invasive BCI devices are implanted inside the skull but rest outside the brain rather than within the grey matter. They produce better resolution signals than non-invasive BCIs where the bone tissue of the cranium deflects and deforms signals and have a lower risk of forming scar-tissue in the brain than fully invasive BCIs. There has been preclinical demonstration of intracortical BCIs from the stroke perilesional cortex.

iv. Non-invasive BCIs[edit]

There have also been experiments in humans

using non-invasive neuroimaging technologies as

interfaces. The substantial majority of published BCI work involves noninvasive EEG-based BCIs. Noninvasive EEG-based technologies and interfaces have been used for a much broader variety of applications.

V. CONCLUSIONS

This algorithm is used to show how the evaluation scheme works to identify, accept, and reject predictive results, and how a candidate predictor can show statistically honest superiority over chance without necessarily involving extreme complexity. an appropriately powered, controlled study showing prospective prediction from EMU data is warranted to guide the development of a clinically useful, patient-oriented, seizure advisory system. The data set has continuous data within interictal or preictal EEG signals, however, there is no clear chronological order between interictal and preictal signals. Due to the lack of publicly available data set, it is not possible to test the performance of the proposed technique against other relevant techniques using true continuous data.

It has some complexity for the feature extraction of the epilepsy of seizure. This is also have the monitoring system of the epilepsy for the patients monitoring system requirements. It is reliable for the patients monitoring system for the support vector machines.
