A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING OR PREDICTING THE ONSET OF A NEUROLOGICAL EPISODE

摘要

A system and method of layered pattern matching comprises: detecting or predicting the onset of a neurological episode: receiving a neurological electrical input comprising a digital signal representation of a neurologically derived signal over a recording length L; converting the digital signal into a digital data string of characters; deriving a layer of digital data from the digital signal, the layer comprising: multiple intervals n having an interval length il from the recording length L, where n = Uil; for a layer: identifying recurring patterns and/or anomalies in the digital data string of characters within each interval; and measuring a pattern-derived parameter for intervals in the layer.
