Hierarchical clustering efficiently groups similar spike events in electroencephalography (EEG) data. This method aids in analyzing interictal events and identifying distinct spike populations for better epilepsy diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Computational Biology
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Interictal events in electroencephalography (EEG) require detailed analysis.
  • Existing methods for analyzing spike events can be inefficient.
  • Identifying and classifying similar spike morphologies is crucial for understanding neurological conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and explain hierarchical clustering as a method for analyzing spike events in EEG.
  • To demonstrate the efficiency and detail provided by hierarchical clustering for interictal event analysis.
  • To explore the use of a review wizard to structure and streamline the clustering process.

Main Methods:

  • Hierarchical clustering applied to spike events based on topology and morphology.
