Discretization of flat Electroencephalography (EEG) using a probability distribution for fuzzy topographic topological mapping (FTTM) application

The abnormality of the electrical activity in the brain during an epileptic seizure can be measured by using Electroencephalography (EEG) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG). Flat EEG is EEG data accurately translated to a two-dimensional plane. The probability of the Flat EEG signal centroid relocatin...
