Resumo: This work describes a technique for spike detection on EEG records by using self-organizing maps. The EEG database was obtained from 7 patients and every record is 30 minutes long. These records own 32 channels at a sampling rate of 100 Hz. The analysis is made at intervals one second long. For each interval, an algorithm reckons the following parameters: maximum and minimum amplitudes, difference between the amplitudes, event duration, event angle, average, standard deviation, variance, crest factor and entropy. After that, the results are supplied as inputs for a self-organizing map, which was trained with parameters of signals containing spikes, alpha waves, background activity, blinks and noise. In the simulation, the self-organizing map distributes the parameters in clusters. By analyzing these clusters, an algorithm verifies the existence of spikes.
