Abstract(in English) Although electroencephalography (EEG) is essential for the diagnosis of epilepsy, it requires expertise and experience to evaluate the waveforms. This motivates the need to establish a technology that can automatically detect abnormal EEGs related to epilepsy. In this paper, we propose a compact CNN model for detecting abnormal EEGs. This CNN model has temporal convolution for each electrode, spatial convolution between electrodes, and temporal/space convolution as the primary layers and outputs each electrode's prediction results. This allows us to detect abnormalities in each region of the brain. The simulation results using EEGs of 19 epilepsy patients showed that the proposed model detected abnormal EEGs with AUC and F-values equivalent to or higher than those of existing CNNs. Since the proposed model can efficiently extract features in the temporal and spatial directions with a small number of parameters, it can be applied to detect medical EEG abnormalities in general, where large-scale data is not available.
