Computer-aided Spatial Classification of Epileptic Spikes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The authors present a method that can be used to identify exemplar spikes from prolonged EEG recordings. To achieve this they have calculated single dipole source models for each automatically detected spike-like waveform. They used a dipole source algorithm that is computationally light and can be run on-line during EEG acquisition. Although a single dipole source model may not provide anatomically accurate information about the location of generators of all epileptiform abnormalities, it does provide a novel spatial parameter that may be useful in its own right. The authors use this spatial parameter and present the relative spatial density of the dipole locations in the form of three planar projections of the spherical model (a view from above, a view from the right, and a view from behind) and allow users to define the x-, y-, and z-coordinates of points of interest within the spherical model. They then present 10 example waveforms of events that have dipole source model locations that occur close to that seed coordinate. Overall, they found that this method performs very well for frequent events, but does not perform well for rare events or for diffuse EEG abnormalities.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
