Abstract

Epileptic seizure detection is a challenging research topic. The objective of this research is to analyze the performance of various classification techniques while detecting the epileptic seizure in a shorter time. In this paper, we apply four different types of classifiers-two are black-box (SVM & KNN) and other two are non-black-box (Decision tree & Ensemble) on two epileptic patient seizure data sets. Our finding shows that non-black box classifiers, specifically ensemble classifiers, do better than other classifiers. The experimental results indicate that the ensemble classifier can assist for seizure detection in a shorter epoch length of time (i.e., 0.5 s) with high accuracy rate. Significantly in comparison to other classifiers the ensemble classifier provides high accuracy and less chance of false detection rate.
