Objectives: Epileptic seizures are one of the most common diseases in society and difficult to detect. In this study, a new method was proposed to automatically detect and classify epileptic seizures from EEG (Electroencephalography) signals. Methods: In the proposed method, EEG signals classification five-classes including the cases of eyes open, eyes closed, healthy, from the tumor region, an epileptic seizure, has been carried out by using the support vector machine (SVM) and the normalization methods comprising the z-score, minimum-maximum, and MAD normalizations. To classify the EEG signals, the support vector machine classifiers having different kernel functions, including Linear, Cubic, and Medium Gaussian, have been used. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed hybrid models, the confusion matrix, ROC curves, and classification accuracy have been used. The used SVM models are Linear SVM, Cubic SVM, and Medium Gaussian SVM. Results: Without the normalizations, the obtained classification accuracies are 76.90%, 82.40%, and 81.70% using Linear SVM, Cubic SVM, and Medium Gaussian SVM, respectively. After applying the z-score normalization to the multi-class EEG signals dataset, the obtained classification accuracies are 77.10%, 82.30%, and 81.70% using Linear SVM, Cubic SVM, and Medium Gaussian SVM, respectively. With the minimum-maximum normalization, the obtained classification accuracies are 77.20%, 82.40%, and 81.50% using Linear SVM, Cubic SVM, and Medium Gaussian SVM, respectively. Moreover, finally, after applying the MAD normalization to the multi-class EEG signals dataset, the obtained classification accuracies are 76.70%, 82.50%, and 81.40% using Linear SVM, Cubic SVM, and Medium Gaussian SVM, respectively. Conclusion: The obtained results have shown that the best hybrid model is the combination of cubic SVM and MAD normalization in the classification of EEG signals classification five-classes.
