Abstract
In 12 epileptic patients suffering from “absences” 8-channel EEG was recorded by telemetry. The autoregressive model was applied to the signal and the prediction coefficients being the basis for calculation of the poles of the predictor. The location of the poles in thez- ands-planes was described as a function of time for 0.1 s steps along the pre-seizure EEG. In 10 of the 12 patients, and in 25 of the 28 recorded seizures this presentation of the poles of the predictor showed specific pattern linked with the occurrence of the siezure. The trajectory of the “most mobile pole” during the pre-seizure period could aid in the prediction of the seizure by several seconds.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
