Abstract: This paper describes a completely automated approach in order to enhance the diagnosis of epilepsy disease which is one of the most prevalent neurological disorders. The major aim of this work is to be a potential contribution to the domain. The present paper is divided into three main parts. In the first part, we optimise the statistical features extracted from the EEG signals by a characterisation degree. Then, these features are applied to a multilayer neural network (MNN) classifier. In the third part, we use a digital signal peripheral interface controller (dsPIC) for the implementation of the real-time EEG classification process. The used EEG data are taken from the publicly available database of the University of Bonn and are classified into healthy and epileptic subjects. To assess the performance of this classification method, several performance measures (sensitivity, specificity and accuracy) have been evaluated and have provided interesting results.
