Towards Interpretable Seizure Detection Using Wearables

Seizure detection using machine learning is a critical problem for the timely intervention and management of epilepsy. We propose SeizFt, a robust seizure detection framework using EEG from a wearable device. It uses features paired with an ensemble of trees, thus enabling further interpretation of the model’s results. The efficacy of the underlying augmentation and class-balancing strategy is also demonstrated. This study was performed for the Seizure Detection Challenge 2023, an ICASSP Grand Challenge.
