Seizure anticipation

Seizure detection is considered successful when a seizure is noticeable at its beginning from human or algorithm. The onset of a seizure has a typical clinical behaviour and is certified by a neurologist expert.
seizure detection

Advanced seizure detection and anticipation algorithms have been implemented and tested on epileptic patients data from PAGNI university hospital of Heraklion.
