N2 - Epilepsy is one of the most frequent neurological illnesses caused by epileptic seizures and the second most prevalent neurological ailment after stroke, affecting millions of people worldwide. People with epileptic disease are considered a category of people with disabilities. It significantly impairs a person’s capacity to perform daily tasks, especially those requiring focusing or remembering. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are commonly used to diagnose people with epilepsy. However, it is tedious, time-consuming, and subjected to human errors. Several machine learning techniques have been applied to recognize epilepsy previously, but they have some limitations. This study proposes a deep neural network (DNN) machine learning model to determine the existing limitations of previous studies by improving the recognition efficiency of epileptic disease. A public dataset is used in this study and classified into training and testing sets. Experiments were performed to evaluate the DNN model with different dataset classification ratios (80:20), (70:30), (60:40), and (50:50) for training and testing, respectively. Results were evaluated by using different performance metrics including validations, and comparison processes that allow the assessment of the model’s effectiveness. The experimental results showed that the overall efficiency of the proposed model is the highest compared with previous works, with an accuracy rate of 97%. Thus, this study is more accurate and efficient than the existing seizure detection approaches. DNN model has great potential for recognizing epileptic patient activity using a numerical EEG dataset offering a data-driven approach to improve the accuracy and reliability of seizure detection systems for the betterment of patient care and management of epilepsy.
