Alam, et al.. EEG Signal Discrimination Using Non-linear Dynamics in the EMD Domain S. M. Shafiul Alam,s. M. Shafiul Alam,aurangozeb, and Syed Tarekshahriar Abstract—an Emd-chaos Based Approach Is Proposed Todiscriminate EEG Signals Corresponding to Healthy Persons,and Epileptic Patients During Seizure-free Intervals and Seizureattacks. An Electroencephalogram (EEG) Is First Empiricallydecomposed to Intrinsic Mode Functions (imfs). The Nonlineardynamics of These Imfs Are Quantified in Terms of the Largestlyapunov Exponent (LLE) and Correlation Dimension (cd).this Chaotic Analysis in EMD Domain Is Applied to a Large Groupof EEG Signals Corresponding to Healthy Persons as Well Asepileptic Patients (both with and Without Seizure Attacks). It Isshown That the Values of the Obtained LLE and CD Exhibitfeatures by Which EEG for Seizure Attacks Can Be Clearlydistinguished from Other EEG Signals in the EMD Domain.thus, the Proposed Approach May Aid Researchers in Developingeffective Techniques to Predict Seizure Activities. Index Terms—electroencephalogram (EEG), Empiricalmode Decomposition (EMD), Largest Lyapunov Exponent (lle),correlation Dimension (CD), Epileptic Seizures.
