Abstract | Analysis of long-term electroencephalogram signals (EEG) is an important tool to clinically confirm the diagnosis of epilepsy. The characteristic electrographic events that represent epilepsy in the analysis of EEG are called epileptiform events (spikes and sharp waves). The process of EEG record analysis is performed by highly trained specialists, which identify the spikes and sharp waves throughout EEG records with minimum duration of 24 hours. Since epileptiform events have typical amplitude around 200μV and duration between 20 and 200ms the analysis of the EEG records is considered very time-consuming and tiring for the experts. Several studies for automatic detection and classification of epileptiform events have been proposed but there is still no system with widespread use and a performance that meets the needs of the specialists. The Self-Organizing Maps of Kohonen (SOM) are an unsupervised neural network algorithm that consists of two layers of neurons that has been successfully used in a wide variety of applications. The objective of this study is to test the feasibility of using Self-Organizing Maps of Kohonen for automatic classification of epileptiform events and non-epileptiform events in EEG signals. Different maps of Kohonen were developed and tested. After simulations, the results were evaluated according to classical performance indexes and the best network achieved 98.7% sensitivity, 91.9% specificity, 90.08% selectivity and 94.8% efficiency. Comparing the results of other SOM studies we obtained sensitivity 9-12% higher and selectivity 12-39% higher than the analyzed studies. Furthermore, a comparison with the results of a previous study that uses the same EEG signal database showed that the overall efficiency was quite similar (only 1% lower). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
