Abstract

Phase-space dissimilarity measures (PSDM) have been recently proposed to provide forewarning of impending epileptic events from scalp electroencephalographic (EEG) for eventual ambulatory settings. Despite high noise in scalp EEG, PSDM yield consistently superior performance over traditional nonlinear indicators, such as Kolmogorov entropy, Lyapunov exponents, and correlation dimension. However, blind application of PSDM may result in channel inconsistency, whereby multiple datasets from the same patient yield conflicting forewarning indications in the same channel. This paper presents a first attempt to solve this problem.
