Classification of quantitative eeg data by an artificial neural network: A preliminary study

Previous studies from different laboratories have suggested that qEEG could be useful for distinguishing dementia from normality. Our aims were: (1) to study the ability of qEEG to distinguish dementia among different pathological conditions in ambulatory settings; (2) to compare the ability of clas...
