Abstract
An epileptic seizure is the external manifestation of abnormal neuronal discharges, which seriously affecting physical health. The pathogenesis of epilepsy is complex, and the types of epileptic seizures are diverse, resulting in significant variation in epileptic seizure data between subjects. If we feed epilepsy data from multiple patients directly into the model for training, it will lead to underfitting of the model. To overcome this problem, we propose a robust epileptic seizure detection model that effectively learns from multiple patients while eliminating the negative impact of the data distribution shift between patients. The model adopts a multi-level temporal-spectral feature extraction network to achieve feature extraction, a feature separation network to separate features into category-related and patient-related components, and an invariant feature extraction network to extract essential feature information related to categories. The proposed model is evaluated on the TUH dataset using leave-one-out cross-validation and achieves an average accuracy of 85.7%. The experimental results show that the proposed model is superior to the related literature and provides a valuable reference for the clinical application of epilepsy detection.
