This study introduces a novel EEG compression method using fractal compression (Iterative Function System) and Genetic Algorithms. The technique achieves high data reduction (≥85%) while maintaining clinical-grade signal quality.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Signal Processing
  • Computational Neuroscience

Background:

  • Electroencephalography (EEG) signals generate large datasets, necessitating efficient compression techniques for clinical and research applications.
  • Existing EEG compression methods face challenges in balancing compression ratio with signal fidelity.
  • Fractal compression, leveraging self-similarity, offers a potential avenue for effective EEG data reduction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel EEG compression method utilizing Iterative Function System (IFS) and Genetic Algorithms (GAs).
  • To assess the efficacy of fractal compression in exploiting the self-transformability property of EEG signals.
  • To ensure the compressed EEG data retains sufficient quality for clinical interpretation.

Main Methods:
