ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Detection and diagnosis based on extracting features and classification using electroencephalography (EEG) signals are being studied vigorously. A network analysis of time series EEG signal data is one of many techniques that could help study brain functions. In this study, we analyze EEG to diagnose alcoholism.APPROACH:
We propose a novel methodology to estimate the differences in the status of the brain based on EEG data of normal subjects and data from alcoholics by computing many parameters stemming from effective network using Granger causality. MAINRESULTS:
Among many parameters, only ten parameters were chosen as final candidates. By the combination of ten graph-based parameters, our results demonstrate predictable differences between alcoholics and normal subjects. A support vector machine classifier with best performance had 90% accuracy with sensitivity of 95.3%, and specificity of 82.4% for differentiating between the two groups.
