Optimized Deep Neural Network Architecture for Robust Detection of Epileptic Seizures using EEG Signals

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder of the brain that affects people of all ages. Approximately seventy million people worldwide possess epilepsy, making it typically the second most common neurological disease after a migraine (Rogers, 2010). The characterizing feature of epilepsy is repetitive seizures that strike abruptly. Symptoms may run from short suspension of awareness to violent convulsions and once in a while loss of consciousness (Acharya et al., 2013). Electroencephalogram (EEG) is the prime signal that has been widely used for the diagnosis of epilepsy.
