Hardware Implementation of Digital Signal Processing Algorithms for Programmable Epilepsy Control Systems

Keyvan Farhang Razi

Epilepsy is a common chronic neurological disorder that causes recurring seizures and affects more than 50 million people worldwide. Implantable medical devices (IMDs) are regarded as effective tools to cure patients who suffer from refractory epilepsy. Se ...

Disruption of layer-specific visual processing in a model of focal neocortical epilepsy

Silvestro Micera, Matteo Vissani

The epileptic brain is the result of a sequence of events transforming normal neuronal populations into hyperexcitable networks supporting recurrent seizure generation. These modifications are known to induce fundamental alterations of circuit function and ...

Recent Developments on the Use of Nanomaterials for the Treatment of Epilepsy

Sandrine Gerber, Sara María Garcia Pedrero

Epilepsy affects more than 40 million people worldwide, constituting one of the most debilitating disorders of the Central Nervous System (CNS). It results from an imbalance in the electrical activity of neurons, which is primarily mediated by calcium ions ...

Personalized seizure signature: An interpretable approach to false alarm reduction for long‐term epileptic seizure detection

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Dionisije Sopic

Objective Long-term automatic detection of focal seizures remains one of the major challenges in epilepsy due to the unacceptably high number of false alarms from state-of-the-art methods. Our aim was to investigate to what extent a new patient-specific ap ...

Self-Aware Anomaly-Detection for Epilepsy Monitoring on Low-Power Wearable Electrocardiographic Devices

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Farnaz Forooghifar

Low-power wearable technologies offer a promising solution to pervasive epilepsy monitoring by removing the constraints concerning time and location, on one hand, and fulfilling long-term tracking, on the other hand. In the case of epileptic seizures, as t ...

Personalized Real-Time Federated Learning for Epileptic Seizure Detection

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Saleh Baghersalimi

Epilepsy is one of the most prevalent paroxystic neurological disorders. It is characterized by the occurrence of spontaneous seizures. About 1 out of 3 patients have drug-resistant epilepsy, thus their seizures cannot be controlled by medication. Automati ...

Automatic detection of generalized paroxysmal fast activity in interictal EEG using time-frequency analysis

Amir Hossein Omidvarnia

Objective: Markup of generalized interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) on EEG is an important step in the diagnosis and characterization of epilepsy. However, manual EEG markup is a time-consuming, subjective, and the specialized task where the human r ...

Dynamic analysis of fMRI activation during epileptic spikes can help identify the seizure origin

Amir Hossein Omidvarnia

Objective We use the dynamic electroencephalography-functional magnetic resonance imaging (EEG-fMRI) method to incorporate variability in the amplitude and field of the interictal epileptic discharges (IEDs) into the fMRI analysis. We ask whether IED varia ...
