Abstract
EEG signals play an important role in both the diagnosis of neurological diseases and understanding the psychophysiological processes. Classification of EEG signals includes feature extraction and feature classification. This paper uses approximate entropy and sample entropy based on wavelet package decomposition as the feature exaction methods and employs support vector machine and extreme learning machine as the classifiers. Experiments are performed in epileptic EEG data and five mental tasks, respectively. Experimental results show that the combination strategy of sample entropy and extreme learning machine has shown great performance, which obtains good classification accuracy and low training time.
