Here we present a multi-stage phase synchrony based system that brings to bear the advantages of many techniques in each substage. The 1(st) stage of the system unmixes continuous long-term (2-4 days) multichannel scalp EEG using spatially constrained Independent Component Analysis and estimates the long term significant phase synchrony dynamics of narrowband (2-8 Hz and 8-14 Hz) seizure components. It then projects multidimensional features onto a 2-D map using Neuroscale and evaluates the probability of predictive events using Gaussian Mixture Models. We show the possibility of seizure onset prediction within a prediction window of 35-65 minutes with a sensitivity of 65-100% and specificity of 65-80% across epileptic patients.10aAlgorithms10aArtificial Intelligence10aDiagnosis, Computer-Assisted10aElectroencephalography10aEpilepsy10aHumans10aPattern Recognition, Automated10aReproducibility of Results10aSensitivity and Specificity1 aJames, Christopher, J1 aGupta, Disha  uhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1996510402201nas a2200289   4500008004100000022001400041245012000055210006900175260000900244300001100253490001200264520126500276653001501541653002801556653003301584653002701617653001301644653001101657653003501668653003301703653003101736653003201767100002601799700002101825700001701846856004801863       2007                        eng d  a1557-170X00aSpace-time ICA versus Ensemble ICA for ictal EEG analysis with component differentiation via Lempel-Ziv complexity.0 aSpacetime ICA versus Ensemble ICA for ictal EEG analysis with co  c2007  a5473-60 v08/20073 aIn this proof-of-principle study we analyzed intracranial electroencephalogram recordings in patients with intractable focal epilepsy. We contrast two implementations of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) - Ensemble (or spatial) ICA (E-ICA) and Space-Time ICA (ST-ICA) in separating out the ictal components underlying the measurements. In each case we assess the outputs of the ICA algorithms by means of a non-linear method known as the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) complexity. LZ complexity quantifies the complexity of a time series and is well suited to the analysis of non-stationary biomedical signals of short length. Our results show that for small numbers of intracranial recordings, standard E-ICA results in marginal improvements in the separation as measured by the LZ complexity changes. ST-ICA using just 2 recording channels both near and far from the epileptic focus result in more distinct ictal components--although at this stage there is a subjective element to the separation process for ST-ICA. Our results are promising showing that it is possible to extract meaningful information from just 2 recording electrodes through ST-ICA, even if they are not directly over the seizure focus. This work is being further expanded for seizure onset analysis.10aAlgorithms10aArtificial Intelligence10aDiagnosis, Computer-Assisted10aElectroencephalography10aEpilepsy10aHumans10aPattern Recognition, Automated10aPrincipal Component Analysis10aReproducibility of Results10aSensitivity and Specificity1 aJames, Christopher, J1 aAbásolo, Daniel1 aGupta, Disha  uhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18003250
