Epilepsy is one of the most occurring neurological disease globally emerged back in 4000 BC. It is affecting around 50 million people of all ages these days. The trait of this disease is recurrent seizures. In the past few decades, the treatments available for seizure control have improved a lot with the advancements in the field of medical science and technology. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a widely used technique for monitoring the brain activity and widely popular for seizure region detection. It is performed before surgery and also to predict seizure at the time operation which is useful in neuro stimulation device. But in most of cases visual examination is done by neurologist in order to detect and classify patterns of the disease but this requires a lot of pre-domain knowledge and experience. This all in turns put a pressure on neurosurgeons and leads to time wastage and also reduce their accuracy and efficiency. There is a need of some automated systems in arena of information technology like use of neural networks in deep learning which can assist neurologists. In the present paper, a model is proposed to give an accuracy of 98.33% which can be used for development of automated systems. The developed system will significantly help neurologists in their performance.

Introduction: The major area of work of pathologists is concerned with detecting the diseases and helping the patients in their healthcare and well-being. The present method used by pathologists for this purpose is manually viewing the slides using a microscope and other instruments. But this method suffers from a lot of problems, like there is no standard way of diagnosing, human errors and it puts a heavy load on the laboratory men to diagnose such a large number of slides daily. Method: The slide viewing method is widely used and converted into digital form to produce high resolution images. This enables the area of deep learning and machine learning to deep dive into this field of medical sciences. In the present study, a neural based network has been proposed for classification of blood cells images into various categories. When input image is passed through the proposed architecture and all the hyper parameters and dropout ratio values are used in accordance with proposed algorithm, then model classifies the blood images with an accuracy of 95.24%. Result: After training the models on 20 epochs. The plots of training accuracy, testing accuracy and corresponding training loss, testing loss for proposed model is plotted using matplotlib and trends. Discussion: The performance of proposed model is better than existing standard architectures and other work done by various researchers. Thus, the proposed model enables the development of pathological system which will reduce human errors and daily load on laboratory men. This can also in turn help pathologists in carrying out their work more efficiently and effectively. Conclusion: In the present study, a neural based network has been proposed for classification of blood cells images into various categories. These categories have significance in the medical sciences. When input image is passed through the proposed architecture and all the hyper parameters and dropout ratio values are used in accordance with proposed algorithm, then model classifies the images with an accuracy of 95.24%. This accuracy is better than standard architectures.. Further it can be seen that the proposed neural network performs better than present related works carried by various researchers.

Epilepsy is one of the most occurring neurological diseases. The main characteristic of this disease is a frequent seizure, which is an electrical imbalance in the brain. It is generally accompanied by shaking of body parts and even leads (fainting). In the past few years, many treatments have come up. These mainly involve the use of anti-seizure drugs for controlling seizures. But in 70% of cases, these drugs are not effective, and surgery is the only solution when the condition worsens. So patients need to take care of themselves while having a seizure and be safe. Wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) devices have come up with the development in medical science and technology. These devices help in the analysis of brain electrical activities. EEG helps in locating the affected cortical region. The most important is that it can predict any seizure in advance on-site. This has resulted in a sudden increase in demand for effective and efficient seizure prediction and diagnosis systems. A novel approach to epileptic seizure prediction and diagnosis system “EpilNet” is proposed in the present paper. It is a one-dimensional (1D) convolution neural network. EpilNet gives the testing accuracy of 79.13% for five classes, leading to a significant increase of about 6-7% compared to related works. The developed Web API helps in bringing EpilNet into practical use. Thus, it is an integrated system for both patients and doctors. The system will help patients prevent injury or accidents and increase the efficiency of the treatment process by doctors in the hospitals.
