“…[22][23][24][25][26][27]) aim at a better understanding of neural dynamics related to epileptic seizure generation; many of them using methods from signal processing, complex systems theory and system biology. Several publications indicate that a possible transition from interictal to ictal states might be detected 625 by a higher-dimensional analysis of brain electrical activity [28][29][30][31][32] but still seizures cannot be anticipated with necessary sensitivity and specificity.…”

SUMMARYAlthough in the field of epileptic seizure prediction many spatio-temporal approaches have been carried out, the precursor detection problem remains unsolved up to now. It can be observed that an increasing number of algorithms are developed based on cellular nonlinear networks (CNNs). They are dealing with the extraction of signal features using intracranial EEG recordings in order to detect possible preseizure states. In general, reliable precursor detections cannot be obtained for all treated cases. The performance of these algorithms can be enhanced by adapting them to specific patients. Combining different features in a feature vector in a future seizure anticipation platform may lead to a reliably working seizure prediction system.In this contribution we focus on two different CNN-based algorithms-a nonlinear identification approach and a prediction algorithm. They will be discussed in detail and recently obtained results will be given.

“…Previous studies [5], [6], [8]- [11], [13], [15], [16] have shown that interesting results are obtained by the application of algorithms based on Cellular Nonlinear Networks [2]- [4] and Volterra-Systems [14]. Especially, distinct changes of the relative mean square error prior to epileptic seizures could be observed in a EEG-signal [17] prediction.…”

Meanwhile, numerous publications address the feature extraction problem in epilepsy. Up to now a precursor detection based on changes of EEG-signal features could not be performed with a sufficient sensitivity and specifity for an automated seizure warning system. Different approaches including procedures using stochastic models, as well as algorithms based on Cellular Nonlinear Networks (CNN) and Volterra-Systems have been discussed throughout previous publications. Therin interesting findings have been discussed involving e.g. signal prediction algorithms and the calculation of synchronisation measures. In this contribution new results obtained in a spatio temporal linear prediction of segmented electrode signals using long-term SEEG and ECoG recordings of patients in epilepsy will be discussed in detail.

“…Despite of numerous contributions to the problem of the extraction of EEG-signal features, 6,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15] the task of predicting a seizure with sufficient sensitivity and specifity remains unsolved so far. We have proposed several feature extraction methods based on Cellular Nonlinear Networks 16,17 and Volterra Systems 18 covering different algorithmic approaches.…”

In previous publications, 1-6 several approaches targeting the problem of seizure prediction 7 in epilepsy 8 have been proposed. In this contribution recent results based on an EEG-signal prediction algorithm will be presented and discussed in detail. Therefore segmented data aquired by multi-electrode Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and Electrocorticography (ECoG) are presented to a delay-type DTCNN with linear weight functions and a 3 × 1 network topology. This leads to series of signal predictors and according to that to series of prediction errors. These prediction error series are arranged in a 2 dimensional representation called error profile. 9 This profile enables the choice of optimal positions for implanting long time electrodes, by means of which perhaps a mostly effective seizure prediction may become possible. So far data of different patients have been studied in detail and some distinct electrode points were found showing distinct changes before a seizure onset.
