Analysing electroencephalograms
Machine Intelligence Research Unit, and Computer Unit, Western General Hospital, University of Edinburgh, Hope Park Square, Meadow Lane, Edinburgh, UK
Computers have mainly been used to assist doctors in analysing electroencephalogram records by averaging responses to a repeated stimulus. Techniques are now being developed using computers which will assist the doctor to recognise epileptic activity in EEG records and to make quantitative estimates of the likelihood that a patient may suffer from fits.
