title: [Aid to the diagnosis of epilepsy. Codification of EEG tracings for the characterization of detectable non-stationary phenomena].
abstract: The aim of automatic EEG analysis is to detect and class the significant events of the signal. For the detection phase an autoregressive model is developed giving rise to non-stationary points. The model used to analyse information in each event goes further than the problem of existence or non-existence. It is possible to understand qualitative aspects regarding the recognition of typical patterns of epilepsy such as 'spike and waves' providing a preliminary classification of the pattern. Such a classification based on sentence coding established from quantities provided from the model leads to a qualitative understanding of the phenomenon. The first results are presented.
