A novel wavelet-based index to detect epileptic seizures using scalp EEG signals
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel wavelet-based algorithm for the detection of epileptic seizures. The algorithm is based on the recognition of rhythmic activities associated with ictal states in surface EEG recordings. Using a moving-window analysis, we first decomposed each EEG segment into a wavelet packet tree. Then, we extracted the coefficients corresponding to the frequency band of interest defined for rhythmic activities. Finally, a normalized index sensitive to both the rhythmicity and energy of the EEG signal was derived, based on the resulting coefficients. In our study, we evaluated this combined index for real-time detection of epileptic seizures using a dataset of approximately 11.5 hours of multichannel scalp EEG recordings from three patients and compared it to our previously proposed wavelet-based index. In this dataset, the novel combined index detected all epileptic seizures with a false detection rate of 0.52/hr.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
