Abstract
Optical fiber sensors are extensively employed for their unique merits, such as small size, being lightweight, and having strong robustness to electronic interference. The above-mentioned sensors apply to more applications, especially the detection and monitoring of vital signs in medical or clinical. However, it is inconvenient for daily long-term human vital sign monitoring with conventional monitoring methods under the uncomfortable feelings generated since the skin and devices come into direct contact. This study introduces a non-invasive surveillance system that employs an optical fiber sensor and advanced deep-learning methodologies for precise vital sign readings. This system integrates a monitor based on the MZI (Mach-Zehnder interferometer) with LSTM networks, surpassing conventional approaches and providing potential uses in medical diagnostics. This could be potentially utilized in non-invasive health surveillance, evaluation, and intelligent health care.

Abstract
A comprehensive analysis of an automated system for epileptic seizure detection is explained in this work. When a seizure occurs, it is quite difficult to differentiate the non-stationary patterns from the discharges occurring in a rhythmic manner. The proposed approach deals with it efficiently by clustering it initially for the sake of feature extraction by using six different techniques categorized under two different methods, e.g., bio-inspired clustering and learning-based clustering. Learning-based clustering includes K-means clusters and Fuzzy C-means (FCM) clusters, while bio-inspired clusters include Cuckoo search clusters, Dragonfly clusters, Firefly clusters, and Modified Firefly clusters. Clustered values were then classified with 10 suitable classifiers, and after the performance comparison analysis of the EEG time series, the results proved that this methodology flow achieved a good performance index and a high classification accuracy. A comparatively higher classification accuracy of 99.48% was achieved when Cuckoo search clusters were utilized with linear support vector machines (SVM) for epilepsy detection. A high classification accuracy of 98.96% was obtained when K-means clusters were classified with a naive Bayesian classifier (NBC) and Linear SVM, and similar results were obtained when FCM clusters were classified with Decision Trees yielding the same values. The comparatively lowest classification accuracy, at 75.5%, was obtained when Dragonfly clusters were classified with the K-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifier, and the second lowest classification accuracy of 75.75% was obtained when Firefly clusters were classified with NBC.

Abstract
Epileptic patients suffer from an epileptic brain seizure caused by the temporary and unpredicted electrical interruption. Conventionally, the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are manually studied by medical practitioners as it records the electrical activities from the brain. This technique consumes a lot of time, and the outputs are unreliable. In a bid to address this problem, a new structure for detecting an epileptic seizure is proposed in this study. The EEG signals obtained from the University of Bonn, Germany, and real-time medical records from the Senthil Multispecialty Hospital, India, were used. These signals were disintegrated into six frequency subbands that employed discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and extracted twelve statistical functions. In particular, seven best features were identified and further fed into k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN), naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Decision Tree classifiers for two-type and three-type classifications. Six statistical parameters were employed to measure the performance of these classifications. It has been found that different combinations of features and classifiers produce different results. Overall, the study is a first attempt to find the best combination feature set and classifier for 16 different 2-class and 3-class classification challenges of the Bonn and Senthil real-time clinical dataset.

Abstract
The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a fundamental tool in the diagnosis and classification of epilepsy. In particular, Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IEDs) reflect an increased likelihood of seizures and are routinely assessed by visual analysis of the EEG. Visual assessment is, however, time consuming and prone to subjectivity, leading to a high misdiagnosis rate and motivating the development of automated approaches. Research towards automating IED detection started 45 years ago. Approaches range from mimetic methods to deep learning techniques. We review different approaches to IED detection, discussing their performance and limitations. Traditional machine learning and deep learning methods have yielded the best results so far and their application in the field is still growing. Standardization of datasets and outcome measures is necessary to compare models more objectively and decide which should be implemented in a clinical setting.

Abstract
Over several years, research had been conducted for the detection of epileptic seizures to support an automatic diagnosis system to comfort the clinicians' encumbrance. In this regard, a number of research papers have been published for the identification of epileptic seizures. A thorough review of all these papers is required. So, an attempt has been made to review on the pattern detection methods for epilepsy seizure detection from EEG signals. More than 150 research papers have been discussed to determine the techniques for detecting epileptic seizures. Further, the literature review confirms that the pattern recognition techniques required to detect epileptic seizures varies across the electroencephalogram (EEG) datasets of different conditions. This is mostly owing to the fact that EEG detected under different conditions have different characteristics. This consecutively necessitates the identification of the pattern recognition technique to efficiently differentiate EEG epileptic data from the EEG data of various conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal of this work is to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of responsive (or closed-loop) Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapy in sleep quality in patients with medically refractory epilepsy. METHODS Using quantitative features obtained from electroencephalography, we first developed a new automatic sleep-staging framework that consists of a multi-class support vector machine (SVM) classification, based on a decision tree approach. To train and evaluate the performance of the framework, we used polysomnographic data of 23 healthy subjects from the PhysioBank database where the sleep stages have been visually annotated. We then used the trained classifier to label the sleep stages using data from 22 patients with epilepsy, treated with short term responsive VNS therapy during an epilepsy-monitoring unit visit, one month after VNS implantation, and ten VNS-naïve patients with epilepsy. RESULTS Application of multi-class SVM classifier to classify the three sleep stages of awake, light sleep + rapid eye movement, and deep sleep achieved a classification accuracy of 90%. Results of the application of this methodology to VNS-treated and VNS-naïve patients revealed that the patients treated with short term responsive VNS therapy showed significant increase in sleep efficiency, and significant decrease in seizures plus interictal epileptiform discharges and awakenings. CONCLUSION These results indicate that VNS treatment can reduce the epileptiform activities and thus help in achieving better sleep quality for patients with epilepsy. SIGNIFICANCE The proposed approach can be used to investigate the effect of long-term VNS therapy on sleep quality.

Abstract
Over many decades, research is being attempted for the detection of epileptic seizure to support for automatic diagnosis system to help clinicians from burdensome work. In this respect, an enormous number of research papers is published for identification of epileptic seizure. It is difficult to present a detailed review of all these literature. Therefore, in this paper, an attempt has been made to review the detection of an epileptic seizure. More than 100 research papers have been discussed to discern the techniques for detecting the epileptic seizure. Further, the literature survey shows that the pattern recognition required to detect epileptic seizure varies with different conditions of EEG datasets. This is mainly due to the fact that EEG detected under different conditions has different characteristics. This is, in turn, necessitates the identification of pattern recognition technique to effectively distinguish EEG epileptic data from a various condition of EEG data.

Abstract
Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal-processing techniques are the prominent role in the detection and prediction of epileptic seizures. The detection of epileptic activity is cumbersome and needs a detailed analysis of the EEG data. Therefore, an efficient method for classifying EEG data is required. In this work, a constructive pattern recognition strategy for analysing EEG data as normal and epileptic seizure has been proposed. With this strategy, the signals were decomposed into frequency sub-bands using discrete wavelet transform (DWT). principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) are applied to reduce the dimensionality of EEG data. These reduced features were used as input to Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbour Classifier to classify normal or epileptic seizure signal. The performance of classifier was evaluated in terms of accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The experimental results show that PCA with Naïve Bayes classifier provides 98.6% accuracy and LDA with Naïve Bayes classifier attains improved result of 99.8% accuracy. Also, the result shows that PCA, LDA with K-NN achieves 98.5% and 100% accuracy. This evaluation is used to propose a reliable, practical epilepsy detection method to enhance the patient's care and quality of life.

Abstract
Computer-assisted analysis of electroencephalogram (EEG) has a tremendous potential to assist clinicians during the diagnosis of epilepsy. These systems are trained to classify the EEG based on the ground truth provided by the neurologists. So, there should be a mechanism in these systems, using which a system's incorrect markings can be mentioned and the system should improve its classification by learning from them. We have developed a simple mechanism for neurologists to improve classification rate while encountering any false classification. This system is based on taking discrete wavelet transform (DWT) of the signals epochs which are then reduced using principal component analysis, and then they are fed into a classifier. After discussing our approach, we have shown the classification performance of three types of classifiers: support vector machine (SVM), quadratic discriminant analysis, and artificial neural network. We found SVM to be the best working classifier. Our work exhibits the importance and viability of a self-improving and user adapting computer-assisted EEG analysis system for diagnosing epilepsy which processes each channel exclusive to each other, along with the performance comparison of different machine learning techniques in the suggested system.

Abstract
In this paper we describe the effect of Multiscale Principal Component Analysis (MSPCA) de-noising method in terms of epileptic seizure detection. In addition, we developed a patient-independent seizure detection algorithm using Freiburg EEG database. Each patient contains datasets called "ictal" and "interictal". Window length of 16 s was applied to extract EEG segments from datasets of each patient. Furthermore, Power Spectral Density (PSD) of each EEG segment was estimated using different spectral analysis methods. Afterwards, these values were fed as input to different machine learning methods that were responsible for seizure detection. We also applied MSPCA de-noising method to EEG segments prior to PSD estimation to determine if MSPCA can further enhance the classifiers' performance. The MSPCA drastically improved both the sensitivity and the specificity, increasing the overall accuracy of all three classifiers up to 20%. The best overall detection accuracy (99.59%) was achieved when Eigenvector analysis was used for frequency estimation, and C4.5 as a classifier. The experiment results show that MSPCA is an effective de-noising method for improving the classification performance in epileptic seizure detection.

Abstract
Chest auscultation is a crucial and efficient method for diagnosing lung disease; however, it is a subjective process that relies on physician experience and the ability to differentiate between various sound patterns. Because the physiological signals composed of heart sounds and pulmonary sounds (PSs) are greater than 120 Hz and the human ear is not sensitive to low frequencies, successfully making diagnostic classifications is difficult. To solve this problem, we constructed various PS recognition systems for classifying six PS classes: vesicular breath sounds, bronchial breath sounds, tracheal breath sounds, crackles, wheezes, and stridor sounds. First, we used a piezoelectric microphone and data acquisition card to acquire PS signals and perform signal preprocessing. A wavelet transform was used for feature extraction, and the PS signals were decomposed into frequency subbands. Using a statistical method, we extracted 17 features that were used as the input vectors of a neural network. We proposed a 2-stage classifier combined with a back-propagation (BP) neural network and learning vector quantization (LVQ) neural network, which improves classification accuracy by using a haploid neural network. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve verifies the high performance level of the neural network. To expand traditional auscultation methods, we constructed various PS diagnostic systems that can correctly classify the six common PSs. The proposed device overcomes the lack of human sensitivity to low-frequency sounds and various PS waves, characteristic values, and a spectral analysis charts are provided to elucidate the design of the human-machine interface.

Abstract
Sleep scoring is one of the most important diagnostic methods in psychiatry and neurology. Sleep staging is a time consuming and difficult task undertaken by sleep experts. This study aims to identify a method which would classify sleep stages automatically and with a high degree of accuracy and, in this manner, will assist sleep experts. This study consists of three stages: feature extraction, feature selection from EEG signals, and classification of these signals. In the feature extraction stage, it is used 20 attribute algorithms in four categories. 41 feature parameters were obtained from these algorithms. Feature selection is important in the elimination of irrelevant and redundant features and in this manner prediction accuracy is improved and computational overhead in classification is reduced. Effective feature selection algorithms such as minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR); fast correlation based feature selection (FCBF); ReliefF; t-test; and Fisher score algorithms are preferred at the feature selection stage in selecting a set of features which best represent EEG signals. The features obtained are used as input parameters for the classification algorithms. At the classification stage, five different classification algorithms (random forest (RF); feed-forward neural network (FFNN); decision tree (DT); support vector machine (SVM); and radial basis function neural network (RBF)) classify the problem. The results, obtained from different classification algorithms, are provided so that a comparison can be made between computation times and accuracy rates. Finally, it is obtained 97.03 % classification accuracy using the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method indicate the ability to design a new intelligent assistance sleep scoring system.

Abstract
Many diseases associated with mental deterioration among aged patients can be effectively treated using neurological treatments. Research shows that electroencephalography (EEG) can be used as an independent prognostic indicator of morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, EEG data are typically inaccessible to modern software. It is therefore important to design a comprehensive approach to integrate EEG results into institutional medical systems. A customized EEG system utilizing a database management approach was designed to bridge the gap between the commercial EEG software and hospital data management platforms. Practical and useful medical findings are discoursed from statistical analysis of large amounts of EEG data.

Abstract
Interictal electroencephalography (EEG) has clinically meaningful limitations in its sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of epilepsy because of its dependence on the occurrence of epileptiform discharges. We have developed a computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) tool that operates on the absolute spectral energy of the routine EEG and has both substantially higher sensitivity and negative predictive value than the identification of interictal epileptiform discharges. Our approach used a multilayer perceptron to classify 156 patients admitted for video-EEG monitoring. The patient population was diagnostically diverse; 87 were diagnosed with either generalized or focal seizures. The remainder of the patients were diagnosed with nonepileptic seizures. The sensitivity was 92% (95% confidence interval [CI] 85-97%) and the negative predictive value was 82% (95% CI 67-92%). We discuss how these findings suggest that this CAD can be used to supplement event-based analysis by trained epileptologists.

Abstract
Developing EEG-based computer aided diagnostic (CAD) tools would allow identification of epilepsy in individuals who have experienced possible seizures, yet such an algorithm requires efficient identification of meaningful features out of potentially more than 35,000 features of EEG activity. Mutual information can be used to identify a subset of minimally-redundant and maximally relevant (mRMR) features but requires a priori selection of two parameters: the number of features of interest and the number of quantization levels into which the continuous features are binned. Here we characterize the variance of cross-validation accuracy with respect to changes in these parameters for four classes of machine learning (ML) algorithms. This assesses the efficiency of combining mRMR with each of these algorithms by assessing when the variance of cross-validation accuracy is minimized and demonstrates how naive parameter selection may artificially depress accuracy. Our results can be used to improve the understanding of how feature selection interacts with four classes of ML algorithms and provide guidance for better a priori parameter selection in situations where an overwhelming number of redundant, noisy features are available for classification.
