Abstract

In recent days, local binary pattern and their variants plays a vital role in classification of EEG signals. Hence, in this paper a novel method for classification of EEG signals in accordance with local binary pattern is proposed. Initially, the EEG signal with 9 points is considered and then the average of the signal points existing at various distances such as 1, 2 and 3 are computed. Then, the computed average value for an EEG segment is compared with the center signal point of an EEG segment and thus yields the binary value 0 or 1. Later, the majority rule is employed resulting in 8 bit binary pattern. Also, the average of EEG segment is compared with center point. The decimal equivalent of the generated binary code is referred as the proposed label. Later, the histogram is generated involving the proposed label and then this histogram are used as the feature for an EEG signal. The experimental results on Bonn and Freiburg dataset shows that the proposed method achieves 75.81% and 94.43%, 72.43% and 89.30% in sensitivity and specificity, respectively. Also, the performance is evaluated in terms of classification accuracy with KNN and SVMclassifier by changing the training and testing data. The results indicate that the proposed method could distinguish the seizure and seizure free EEG signals evidently.
