The electroencephalogram (EEG) is the frequently used signal to detect epileptic seizures in the brain. For a successful epilepsy surgery, it is very essential to localize epileptogenic area in the brain. The signals from the epileptogenic area are focal signals and signals from other area of the brain region nonfocal signals. Hence, the classification of focal and nonfocal signals is important for locating the epileptogenic area for epilepsy surgery. In this article, we present a computer aided automatic detection and classification method for focal and nonfocal EEG signal. The EEG signal is decomposed by Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DT‐CWT) and the features are computed from the decomposed coefficients. These features are trained and classified using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) classifier. The proposed system achieves 98% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and 99% accuracy for EEG signal classification. The experimental results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed classification method to classify the focal and nonfocal EEG signals. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
