Abstract
Epileptic seizures induce, in many situations, non-coordinated movement in the patient's body. This movement is relevant for seizure identification. Nevertheless, quantification of this information has not been an object of much attention of scientific community. In this paper, we present our efforts in developing a new approach to quantify movement of patients during epileptic seizures. We present a new method to extract the course of the quantified movement of different parts of the body of epileptic patients during seizures. This information constitutes a quantified movement pattern for each seizure that can be compared with clinical "standard" movement patterns and may help clinicians in the seizure classification.
