Abstract

Background- In the healthcare system, biomedical signals are significant. It aids in diagnosing medical conditions and offers valuable information about a patient's health. Neurologists can find meaningful information and patterns by carefully examining electroencephalogram (EEG) data, which enables sufferers to receive proper care at the right time.

Objective- Biomedical EEG signals can be used to study the neurological condition known as epilepsy. Signals from an EEG can be used to study brain activity and identify neurological disorders. Recurrent seizures are a sign of epilepsy that affects the brain.

Methods- A medical history, neurological examination, and diagnostic EEG tests are frequently used to identify seizures. EEG bio-signals can be viewed and analyzed using an open-source software program called an EDFBrowser.

Results- This research defines the various ways, including visual inspection, frequency analysis, time-frequency analysis, and spike detection, to read EDF (European Data Format) for epileptic patterns. Also, to define the amplitude-frequency relationship, analyze EEG signals, and examine brain activity in different frequency bands, like Delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma, employing Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).

Conclusion- In neuroscience, it must correctly interpret the EEG signal patterns to analyze the condition of the brain.
