Information Theoretic Aspects for enhancement of accuracy in Epilepsy diagnosis
Keywords:
Information Theory, Electroencephalogram, Epilepsy, Shannon EntropyAbstract
An EEG recording remains a major source for analyzing epilepsy disease in the human being. There are various challenges associated with analyzing EEG signals. So we need such methods which can enhance the accuracy in analyzing these signals. We propose a technique towards enhancing diagnostic accuracy of the current state and provide a better estimation of survivability. The proposed methodology utilizes information theoretic approach associated with EEG recordings of epilepsy in developing a model with enhanced inferences with respect to current state of disease and future estimates of survivability.
