Abstract

In this paper, we have introduced a new method for the classification of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals for seizure detection using feature selection and channel selection. The channels are selected based on the method of variance. Further, features have been extracted from intrinsic mode functions obtained after decomposing the EEG signal with empirical mode decomposition. The feature selection is done using a one-way analysis of variance test with a predefined threshold probability value. The classification of seizure and non-seizure signals is done on selected features using Decision Tree and k-nearest neighbor algorithms. The proposed method for classification based on a combination of feature selection and channel selection provides an accuracy of 99.6% which is better as compared to the existing methods. Thus, optimizing the number of channels and using accurate features gives us a better way of analyzing the EEG signals for seizure detection.
