Brain Activity Investigation by EEG Processing: Wavelet Analysis, Kurtosis and Renyi's Entropy for Artifact Detection
TL;DR: In this paper, a multiresolution analysis based on EEG wavelet processing is proposed to extract the cerebral EEG rhythms and a method based on Renyi's entropy and kurtosis is presented to automatically identify the Wavelet components affected by artifacts.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
ECG-derived respiratory signal using Empirical Mode Decomposition
Maurizio Campolo,Domenico Labate,F. La Foresta,Francesco Carlo Morabito,Aime Lay-Ekuakille,P. Vergallo +5 more
TL;DR: A new method based on the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) for the respiratory signal evaluation is introduced and preliminary results confirm that EMD algorithm provides better performances, with respect to others, especially in the case of respiratory waveform reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
PCA–ICA for automatic identification of critical events in continuous coma-EEG monitoring
TL;DR: The performance of a technique, recently proposed by the authors, capable of automatically quantifying how much an EEG epoch is critical, is analysed and allowed for the detection of critical epochs that were worth being carefully inspected by the expert in order to ascertain whether they accounted for brain activity restart or not.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Independent component and wavelet analysis for fECG extraction: the stwaveform evaluation
TL;DR: This paper proposes a method based on wavelet decomposition and component analysis in order to approximate the real shape of the fECG and tries to evaluate the ST waveform for fetal monitoring.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Algorithms and topographic mapping for epileptic seizures recognition and prediction
Nadia Mammone,F. La Foresta,Giuseppina Inuso,Francesco Carlo Morabito,Umberto Aguglia,Vittoria Cianci +5 more
TL;DR: An abnormal coupling among the electrodes that will be involved in seizure development can be hypothesized before the seizure itself, in particular, the frontal/temporal area appears steadily associated to an underlying high synchrony in absence seizure patients.
