- Abstract
This paper presents a data-driven multiscale entropy measure to reveal the scale dependent information quantity of electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings. This work is motivated by the previous observations on the nonlinear and nonstationary nature of EEG over multiple time scales. Here, a new framework of entropy measures considering changing dynamics over multiple oscillatory scales is presented. First, to deal with nonstationarity over multiple scales, EEG recording is decomposed by applying the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) which is known to be effective for extracting the constituent narrowband components without a predetermined basis. Following calculation of Renyi entropy of the probability distributions of the intrinsic mode functions extracted by EMD leads to a data-driven multiscale Renyi entropy. To validate the performance of the proposed entropy measure, actual EEG recordings from rats (n = 9) experiencing 7 min cardiac arrest followed by resuscitation were analyzed. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the use of the multiscale Renyi entropy leads to better discriminative capability of the injury levels and improved correlations with the neurological deficit evaluation after 72 hours after cardiac arrest, thus suggesting an effective diagnostic and prognostic tool.
