Abstract

In this work we address the problem of nonlinear filtering of noise in EEG (electroencephalographic) signal using the centroid correction method, in an attempt to improve the predictability of epileptic seizures long prior to their occurrences. We analyzed multi-channel EEG recordings containing 15 successive seizures in one epileptic patient with focal temporal lobe epilepsy. The total EEG spanned 3 days. The results show an improvement in the predictability time in most of the seizures in addition to improvement in the number of predictable seizures (from 10 to 12) after filtering and dynamical analysis of the EEG.
