Popis
Shrnutí:In this paper, we introduce a two-stage procedure based on artificial neural networks for the automatic recognition of sleep spindles (SSs) in a multi-channel electroencephalographic signal. In the first stage, a discrete perceptron is used to eliminate definite non-SSs. The pre-classification done in the first stage not only reduces the computation time but also increases the overall detection performance of the procedure. In the second stage, the remaining SS candidates after pre-classification procedure are aimed to be separated from each other by an artificial neural network that would function as a post-classifier. Two different networks, i.e. a backpropagation multilayer perceptron and radial basis support vector machine (SVM), are proposed as the post-classifier and compared in terms of their classification performances. Visual evaluation, by two electroencephalographers (EEGers), of 19 channel EEG records of 6 subjects showed that the best performance is obtained with a radial basis SVM providing an average sensitivity of 94.6% and an average false detection rate of 4.0%.
