چکیده
Epilepsy is a neurological condition which affects the nervous system. It is a general term used for a group of disorders in which nerve cells of the brain discharge anomalous electrical impulses from time to time, causing a temporary malfunction of the other nerve cells of the brain.EEG signal provides an important cue for diagnosis and interpretation related to prognosis of epilepsy. In this work we envisage to provide novel tool which can be used to detect the prognosis of epileptic disorder by comparing linear and non-linear modalities of EEG analysis – conventionally used Power spectral analysis and a robust non linear method – Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA). Publicly available dataset is used for this work consisting of 100 normal patients’ EEG data as control group and 100 epileptic patients’ EEG data for comparison. Response for different frequency bands (alpha, theta, beta) of the EEG spectrum have been analyzed using Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) and Power Spectral Intensity (PSI). The comparison of the DFA scaling exponent with the spectral power data is calculated for all the 3 different frequency bands of EEG signal provide new and interesting results which have been discussed in detail . Keywords—EEG signal, Fractal Study, Detrended Fluctuation Analysis, Power Spectral Intensity, Epilepsy.

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...

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...
