Description
Summary:In this paper a decision support system (DSS) for the classification of patients on their collected event related potentials (ERPs) is proposed. The DSS consists of two levels: the feature extraction level and the classification level. The feature extraction level comprises the implementation of the multivariate autoregressive model in conjunction with a global optimization method, for the selection of optimum features from ERPs. The classification level is implemented with a single three-layer neural network, trained with the backpropagation algorithm and classifies the data into two classes: patients and control subjects. The DSS has been thoroughly tested to a number of patient data (OCD, FES, depressives and drug users), resulting successful classification up to 100%.
