Automated seizure detection and classification from electroencephalography (EEG) can greatly improve the diagnosis and treatment of seizures. While prior studies mainly used convolutional neural networks (CNNs) that assume image-like structure in EEG signals or spectrograms, this modeling choice does not reflect the natural geometry of or connectivity between EEG electrodes. In this study, we propose modeling EEGs as graphs and present a graph neural network for automated seizure detection and classification. In addition, we leverage unlabeled EEG data using a self-supervised pre-training strategy. Our graph model with self-supervised pre-training significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art CNN and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models by 6.3 points (7.8%) in Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUROC) for seizure detection and 6.3 points (9.2%) in weighted F1-score for seizure type classification. Ablation studies show that our graph-based modeling approach significantly outperforms existing CNN or LSTM models, and that self-supervision helps further improve the model performance. Moreover, we find that self-supervised pre-training substantially improves model performance on combined tonic seizures, a low-prevalence seizure type. Furthermore, our model interpretability analysis suggests that our model is better at identifying seizure regions compared to an existing CNN. In summary, our graph-based modeling approach integrates domain knowledge about EEG, sets a new state-of-the-art for seizure detection and classification on a large public dataset (5,499 EEG files), and provides better ability to identify seizure regions.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a prominent way to measure the brain activity for studying epilepsy, thereby helping in predicting seizures. Seizure prediction is an active research area with many deep learning based approaches dominating the recent li terature for solving this problem. But these models require a considerable number of patient-specific seizures to be recorded for extracting the preictal and interictal EEG data for training a classifier. The increase in sensitivity and specificity for seizure prediction using the machine learning models is noteworthy. However, the need for a significant number of patient-specific seizures and periodic retraining of the model because of non-stationary EEG creates difficulties for designing practical device for a patient. To mitigate this process, we propose a Siamese neural network based seizure prediction method that takes a wavelet transformed EEG tensor as an input with convolutional neural network (CNN) as the base network for detecting change-points in EEG. Compared to the solutions in the literature, which utilize days of EEG recordings, our method only needs one seizure for training which translates to less than ten minutes of preictal and interictal data while still getting comparable results to models which utilize multiple seizures for seizure prediction.
Epilepsy affects nearly 1% of the global population, of which two thirds can be treated by anti-epileptic drugs and a much lower percentage by surgery. Diagnostic procedures for epilepsy and monitoring are highly specialized and labour-intensive. The accuracy of the diagnosis is also complicated by overlapping medical symptoms, varying levels of experience and inter-observer variability among clinical professions. This paper proposes a novel hybrid bilinear deep learning network with an application in the clinical procedures of epilepsy classification diagnosis, where the use of surface electroencephalogram (sEEG) and audiovisual monitoring is standard practice. Hybrid bilinear models based on two types of feature extractors, namely Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), are trained using Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) of one-second sEEG. In the proposed hybrid models, CNNs extract spatio-temporal patterns, while RNNs focus on the characteristics of temporal dynamics in relatively longer intervals given the same input data. Second-order features, based on interactions between these spatio-temporal features are further explored by bilinear pooling and used for epilepsy classification. Our proposed methods obtain an F1-score of 97.4% on the Temple University Hospital Seizure Corpus and 97.2% on the EPILEPSIAE dataset, comparing favourably to existing benchmarks for sEEG-based seizure type classification.

Epileptic seizure forecasting, combined with the delivery of preventative therapies, holds the potential to greatly improve the quality of life for epilepsy patients and their caregivers. Forecasting seizures could prevent some potentially catastroph ic consequences such as injury and death in addition to a long list of potential clinical benefits it may provide for patient care in hospitals. The challenge of seizure forecasting lies within the seemingly unpredictable transitions of brain dynamics into the ictal state. The main body of computational research on determining seizure risk has been focused solely on prediction algorithms, which involves a remarkable issue of balancing accuracy and false-alarms. In this paper, we developed a seizure-risk warning system that employs Bayesian convolutional neural network (BCNN) to provide meaningful information to the patient and provide a greater opportunity for him/her to be potentially more in charge of his/her health. We use scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and release information on the certainty of our automatic seizure-risk assessment. In the process, we pave the ground-work towards incorporating auxiliary signals to improve our EEG-based seizure-risk assessment system. Our previous CNN results show an average AUC of 74.65% while we could achieve on an EEG-only BCNN an average AUC of 68.70%. This drop in performance is the cost of providing richer information to the patient at this stage of this research.
Epilepsy can be treated with medication, however, $30%$ of epileptic patients are still drug resistive. Devices like responsive neurostimluation systems are implanted in select patients who may not be amenable to surgical resection. However, state-of -the-art devices suffer from low accuracy and high sensitivity. We propose a novel patient-specific seizure detection system based on naive Bayesian inference using Muller C-elements. The system improves upon the current leading neurostimulation device, NeuroPaces RNS by implementing analog signal processing for feature extraction, minimizing the power consumption compared to the digital counterpart. Preliminary simulations were performed in MATLAB, demonstrating that through integrating multiple channels and features, up to $98%$ detection accuracy for individual patients can be achieved. Similarly, power calculations were performed, demonstrating that the system uses $6.5 mu W$ per channel, which when compared to the state-of-the-art NeuroPace system would increase battery life by up to $50 %$.
We propose a computationally efficient algorithm for seizure detection. Instead of using a purely data-driven approach, we develop a hybrid model-based/data-driven method, combining convolutional neural networks with factor graph inference. On the CH B-MIT dataset, we demonstrate that the proposed method can generalize well in a 6 fold leave-4-patientout evaluation. Moreover, it is shown that our algorithm can achieve as much as 5% absolute improvement in performance compared to previous data-driven methods. This is achieved while the computational complexity of the proposed technique is a fraction of the complexity of prior work, making it suitable for real-time seizure detection.
