Abstract

Classification of patients using EEG recordings is a very difficult and application relevant problem in various medical fields. It is difficult because of the very complex signal structure and bad signal quality (noise, artifacts) and it is relevant to submit diagnosis and therapy for example in psychopathology. This paper gives a short summary on current investigations with neural networks in the field of EEG analysis. It covers the important role of data preprocessing as well as some general considerations about control of learning and generalization in neural networks. Practical results of a case study discriminating three groups of subjects (depressives, psychotics and control subjects) will be given. The results had been obtained using feed forward networks with simple topologies and with problem related design, embedded in the special neural network EEG experimental environment N2E4 developed at the Research Group Neural Networks.
