Quantitative analysis of Epileptic EEG signals- An Information Theoretic Approach
Keywords:
Computational Neurosciences, Information Theory, Electroencephalogram, EpilepsyAbstract
Computational neuroscience is a new area of research which deals with neuron responses carrying stimulus for a particular process. Different approaches and researches had applied frameworks, measures & techniques to know & analyze the fundamental understanding of the process. Defining information in a quantitative manner is the major constraint for researchers. Information measure is the only way which can give some inside into the complex world of neuroscience as these stimulus or spikes generated are random in nature & many times lead to chaotic behavior. Any such study/model/framework will be of high interest which can be able to bring some facet about the process.
