Deep-EEG: An Optimized and Robust Framework and Method for EEG-Based Diagnosis of Epileptic Seizure.

Detecting brain disorders using deep learning methods has received much hype during the last few years. Increased depth leads to more computational efficiency, accuracy, and optimization and less loss. Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurological disorders characterized by repeated seizures. We have developed a deep learning model using Deep convolutional Autoencoder-Bidirectional Long Short Memory for Epileptic Seizure Detection (DCAE-ESD-Bi-LSTM) for automatic detection of seizures using EEG data. The significant feature of our model is that it has contributed to the accurate and optimized diagnosis of epilepsy in ideal and real-life situations. The results on the benchmark (CHB-MIT) dataset and the dataset collected by the authors show the relevance of the proposed approach over the baseline deep learning techniques by achieving an accuracy of 99.8%, classification accuracy of 99.7%, sensitivity of 99.8%, specificity and precision of 99.9% and F1 score of 99.6%. Our approach can contribute to the accurate and optimized detection of seizures while scaling the design rules and increasing performance without changing the network's depth.
