  • Title: [The sample entropy and its application in EEG based epilepsy detection].
    Author: Bai D, Qiu T, Li X.
    Journal: Sheng Wu Yi Xue Gong Cheng Xue Za Zhi; 2007 Feb; 24(1):200-5. PubMed ID: 17333922.
    Abstract:
    It is of great importance for the detection of epilepsy in clinical applications. Based on the limitations of the common used approximate entropy (ApEn) in the epilepsy detection, this paper analyzes epileptic EEG signals with the sample entropy (SampEn) approach, a new method for signal analysis with much higher precision than that of the ApEn. Data analysis results show that the values from both ApEn and SampEn decrease significantly when the epilepsy is burst. Furthermore, the SampEn is more sensitive to EEG changes caused by the epilepsy, about 15%-20% higher than the results of the ApEn.
