Feature Selection and Classifier Parameter Estimation for Egg Signal Peak Detection using Gravitational Search Algorithm

Peak detection is a significant step in analyzing the electroencephalography (EEG) signal because peaks may represent meaningful brain activities. Several approaches can be used for peak point detection such as time domain, frequency domain, time-frequency domain, and nonlinear approaches. The...

Description
Summary:Peak detection is a significant step in analyzing the electroencephalography (EEG) signal because peaks may represent meaningful brain activities. Several approaches can be used for peak point detection such as time domain, frequency domain, time-frequency domain, and nonlinear approaches. The main intention of this study is to find the significant peak features in time domain approach and this can be done using feature selection methods such as gravitational search algorithm (GSA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). This study focuses on using GSA method, a new computational intelligence algorithm. Moreover, a rule-based classifier is employed to distinguish a peak point based on the selected features. Using GSA, the parameter estimation of the classifier and the peak feature selection can be done simultaneously. Based on the experimental results, the significant peak features of the peak detection algorithm were obtained where the average test accuracy is 77.74%.
