New AI System Predicts Seizures With Near-Perfect Accuracy

Good news (but dated from Nov. 2019)!

"... the researchers incorporated another classification approach whereby a deep learning algorithm extracts and analyzes the spatial-temporal features of the patient’s brain activity from different electrode locations, boosting the accuracy of their model. And finally, EEG readings can involve multiple “channels” of electrical activity, ... applied an additional algorithm to identify the most appropriate predictive channels of electrical activity; this also speeds up the prediction process. ... With the software component complete, ... the next step is to develop a customized computer chip to process the algorithm"
