Abstract

This study explores the feasibility of implementation of an analysis framework of neonatal EEG, including ML, sonification and intuitive visualization, on a low power IoT edge device. Electroencephalography (EEG) analysis is a very important tool to detect brain disorders. Neonatal seizure detection is a known, challenging problem. Under-resourced communities across the globe are particularly affected by the cost associated with EEG analysis and interpretation. Machine learning (ML) techniques have been successfully utilized to automate seizure detection in neonatal EEG, in order to assist a healthcare professional in visual analysis. Several usage scenarios are reviewed in this study. It is shown that both sonification and ML can be efficiently implemented on low-power edge platforms without any loss of accuracy. The developed platform can be easily expanded to address EEG analysis applications in neonatal and adult population.
