In this approach, we utilize an algorithm that seeks to capture spectral, temporal, and spatial information in order to achieve high generalization. This algorithm's initial step is to convert EEG signals into a series of temporal and multi-spectral pictures. The produced images are then sent into a convolutional neural network (CNN) as inputs. Our convolutional neural network as a deep learning method learns a general spatially irreducible representation of a seizure to improves sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy results comparable to the state-of-the-art results. In this work, in order to avoid the inherent high computational cost of CNNs while benefiting from their superior classification performance, a neuromorphic computing strategy for seizure prediction called spiking CNN is developed from the traditional CNN method, which is motivated by the energy-efficient spiking neural networks (SNNs) of the human brain.Author owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
