Abstrakt: This paper presents a method to characterize, identify and classify some pathological Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. We use some Time Frequency Distributions (TFDs) to analyze its nonstationarity. The analysis is conducted by the spectrogram (SP), the Choi-Williams Distribution (CWD) and the Smoothed Pseudo Wigner Ville Distribution (SPWVD). The studies are carried on some real EEG signals collected from a known database. The estimation of the best value of parameters for each distribution is achieved using the Rényi entropy (RE). The time-frequency results have permitted to characterize some pathological EEG signals. In addition, the Rényi Marginal Entropy (RME) is used for the purpose of detecting the peak seizures and discriminates between normal and pathological EEG signals. The frequency bands are evaluated using the Marginal Frequency (MF). The EEG signal classification of two sets A and E containing normal and pathologic EEG signals, respectively, is performed using our proposed method based on energy extraction of signals from time-frequency plane. Also, the Moving Average (MA) is used as a tool to obtain better classification results. The results conducted on real-life EEG signals illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
