Abstract
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders that impacts 1-2% of the world's population. Detecting seizures through electroencephalogram (EEG) data is a common way for epilepsy diagnosis. Existing automatic systems for EEG-based seizure detection have limitations. Some use manual feature extraction, which is not suitable for generalization in the future, whereas those without manual feature extraction do not have high performances. In this paper, a convolutional neural network combined with a recurrent neural network, known as a CNN-RNN model, is developed to detect seizures on the EEG dataset CHB-MIT. The proposed model is designed to achieve high performances without manual feature extraction. The promising results with a high accuracy of 99.24%, specificity of 99.29%, and recall of 99.16% validate the effectiveness of the proposed model.
