Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the EEG rhythms of subjects undergoing the cortical auditory evoked potential (CAEP) hearing test. Investigation of the importance of the different EEG rhythms in terms of their capability in differentiating between the different alertness states when considering 64 channel EEG montage is conducted. This is followed by considering subsets that contain 2, 3, 4 as well as all 5 EEG rhythms. Finally, a feature subset selection method based on differential evolution (DE) that has particularly been proposed to deal with multi-channel signals is used to search for the best subset of EEG rhythms for the various channels.
