AI‐based localization of the epileptogenic zone using intracranial EEG

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming our lives. Machine learning (ML) enables computers to learn from data and make decisions without explicit instructions. Deep learning (DL), a subset of ML, uses multiple layers of neural networks to recognize complex patterns in large datasets through end‐to‐end learning.
