Abstract

One of the applications of differential equation is dynamic systems, where the description of a system in state space by first-order vector nonlinear. An epileptic seizure is a dynamic system since it’s spends through time. Epilepsy is a collection of disturbances characterized by recurrent paroxysmal electrical discharges of the cerebral cortex that resulted in intermittent disorders of brain functions. Electroencephalography (EEG) is a test that measures and records the electrical activities of the brain from the scalp by using sensors. Our main interest in this dissertation is to model an epileptic seizure as a system of ordinary differential equation.
