RESUMO
Epilepsy is one of the most well-known neurological disorders globally, leading to individuals experiencing sudden seizures and significantly impacting their quality of life. Hence, there is an urgent necessity for an efficient method to detect and predict seizures in order to mitigate the risks faced by epilepsy patients. In this paper, a new method for seizure detection and prediction is proposed, which is based on multi-class feature fusion and the convolutional neural network-gated recurrent unit-attention mechanism (CNN-GRU-AM) model. Initially, the Electroencephalography (EEG) signal undergoes wavelet decomposition through the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), resulting in six subbands. Subsequently, time-frequency domain and nonlinear features are extracted from each subband. Finally, the CNN-GRU-AM further extracts features and performs classification. The CHB-MIT dataset is used to validate the proposed approach. The results of tenfold cross validation show that our method achieved a sensitivity of 99.24% and 95.47%, specificity of 99.51% and 94.93%, accuracy of 99.35% and 95.16%, and an AUC of 99.34% and 95.15% in seizure detection and prediction tasks, respectively. The results show that the method proposed in this paper can effectively achieve high-precision detection and prediction of seizures, so as to remind patients and doctors to take timely protective measures.

Brain tumors can be classified into many different types based on their shape, texture, and location. Accurate diagnosis of brain tumor types can help doctors to develop appropriate treatment plans to save patients' lives. Therefore, it is very crucial to improve the accuracy of this classification system for brain tumors to assist doctors in their treatment. We propose a deep feature fusion method based on convolutional neural networks to enhance the accuracy and robustness of brain tumor classification while mitigating the risk of over-fitting. Firstly, the extracted features of three pre-trained models including ResNet101, DenseNet121, and EfficientNetB0 are adjusted to ensure that the shape of extracted features for the three models is the same. Secondly, the three models are fine-tuned to extract features from brain tumor images. Thirdly, pairwise summation of the extracted features is carried out to achieve feature fusion. Finally, classification of brain tumors based on fused features is performed. The public datasets including Figshare (Dataset 1) and Kaggle (Dataset 2) are used to verify the reliability of the proposed method. Experimental results demonstrate that the fusion method of ResNet101 and DenseNet121 features achieves the best performance, which achieves classification accuracy of 99.18 and 97.24% in Figshare dataset and Kaggle dataset, respectively.
