Convolutional Neural Networks for Epileptic Seizure Prediction

Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder and an accurate forecast of seizures would help to overcome the patient’s uncertainty and helplessness. In this contribution,
we present and discuss a novel methodology for the classification of intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) for seizure prediction. Contrary to previous approaches, we categorically refrain from an extraction of hand-crafted features and use a convolutional neural network (CNN) topology instead for both the determination of suitable signal characteristics and the binary classification of preictal and interictal segments. Three different models have been evaluated on public datasets with long-term recordings from four dogs and three patients. Overall, our findings demonstrate the general applicability. In this work we discuss the strengths and limitations of our methodology.
