TOWARDS INTERPRETABLE SEIZURE DETECTION USING WEARABLES

Proc IEEE Int Conf Acoust Speech Signal Process. 2023 Jun:2023:10.1109/icassp49357.2023.10097091. doi: 10.1109/icassp49357.2023.10097091. Epub 2023 May 5.

Abstract

Seizure detection using machine learning is a critical problem for the timely intervention and management of epilepsy. We propose SeizFt, a robust seizure detection framework using EEG from a wearable device. It uses features paired with an ensemble of trees, thus enabling further interpretation of the model's results. The efficacy of the underlying augmentation and class-balancing strategy is also demonstrated. This study was performed for the Seizure Detection Challenge 2023, an ICASSP Grand Challenge.
