Summary Objectives: The aim of the paper is to analyze transient events in inter-ictal EEG recordings, and classify epileptic activity into focal or generalized epilepsy using an automated method. Methods: A two-stage approach is proposed. In the first stage the observed transient events of a single channel are classified into four categories: epileptic spike (ES), muscle activity (EMG), eye blinking activity (EOG), and sharp alpha activity (SAA). The process is based on an artificial neural network. Different artificial neural network architectures have been tried and the network having the lowest error has been selected using the hold out approach. In the second stage a knowledge-based system is used to produce diagnosis for focal or generalized epileptic activity. Results: The classification of transient events reported high overall accuracy (84.48%), while the knowledge-based system for epilepsy diagnosis correctly classified nine out of ten cases. Conclusions: The proposed method is advantageous since it effectively detects and classifies the undesirable activity into appropriate categories and produces a final outcome related to the existence of epilepsy.

Knowledge acquisition is a critical bottleneck in building a knowledge-based system. Much research and many tools have been developed to acquire domain knowledge with embedded rules that may be ignored in constructing the initial prototype. Due to different backgrounds and dynamic knowledge changing over time, domain knowledge constructed at one time may be degraded at any time thereafter. Here, we propose knowledge acquisition, called enhanced embedded meaning capturing under uncertainty deciding (enhanced EMCUD), which constructs a domain ontology and traces information over time to efficiently update time-related domain knowledge based on the current environment. We enrich the knowledge base and ease the construction of domain knowledge that changes with times and the environment.

Any fuzzy system is a knowledge‐based system which implies an inference engine. Proposes neural networks as a means of performing the inference. Using the Theorem of Representation proposes an encoding scheme that allows the neural network to be trained to perform modus ponens.
