چکیده

localization of sources in patients with focal seizure has recently attracted many attentions. in the severe cases of focal seizure, there is a possibility of doing neurosurgery operation to remove the defected tissue. the prosperity of this heavy operation completely depends on the accuracy of source localization. to increase this accuracy, this paper presents a new weighted beamforming method to precisely localize the focal seizure sources from the electroencephalogram (eeg) signals. first, synchronization value is determined just between each two adjacent channels, and the channel with maximum average in synchronization index is selected as the nearest channel to the dominant focal sources. next, weight of each channel is determined based on its euclidean's distance to the selected channel. the determined weights act as a prior knowledge, incorporating in multiple signal classification (music) and some other beamforming methods to localize the exact place of seizure source. next, the effect of estimated source is removed from the signals repeatedly to find the second focal source. this process continues till all focal sources being determined. to verify and validate the proposed scheme, 65 channels eeg signals were simulated and a linear weighting was applied to the three groups based on some sources. the proposed scheme and some known beamforming methods such as conventional beamformer, music, weighted music, capon’s, eigenvector and also sloreta were applied to the simulated epileptic signals to find the location of sources. experimental results reveal the superiority of the proposed method to the rival schemes in terms of localization accuracy, both in clean and noisy environments

Evaluation of different cortical source localization methods using simulated and experimental EEG data.

Different cortical source localization methods have been developed to directly link the scalp potentials with the cortical activities. Up to now, these methods are the only possible solution to noninvasively investigate cortical activities with both high spatial and time resolutions. However, the application of these methods is hindered by the fact that they have not been rigorously evaluated n...

Epileptic Seizure Detection in EEG signals Using TQWT and SVM-GOA Classifier

Background: Epilepsy is a Brain disorder disease that affects people's quality of life. If it is diagnosed at an early stage, it will not be spread. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are used to diagnose epileptic seizures. However, this screening system cannot diagnose epileptic seizure states precisely. Nevertheless, with the help of computer-aided diagnosis systems (CADS), neurologists ca...

Using Combination of μ,β and γ Bands in Classi.cation of EEG Signals

Introduction: In most BCI articles which aim to separate movement imaginations, µ and &beta frequency bands have been used. In this paper, the effect of presence and absence of &gamma band on performance improvement is discussed since movement imaginations affect &gamma frequency band as well. Methods: In this study we used data set 2a from BCI Competition IV. In this data set, 9 healthy sub...
