Brief targeted pulses of rapidly changing magnetic fields can induce localized intracranial currents that in turn excite specific pools of cerebral cortex neurons. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is the application of trains of targeted magnetic pulses aimed at repetitively exciting specific pools of neurons. rTMS protocols are now being widely prescribed by physicians for the treatment of medication-resistant depressive disorders. Neurogate medical is developing a state of the art integrated transcranial magnetic stimulation system (iTMS) to facilitate and improve current rTMS protocols. This research project will investigate signal processing and pattern recognition algorithms that can be included in the iTMS for the detection of pre-seizure activity present in EEG signals acquired during an rTMS protocol. Detection of such pre-seizure activity will

快速变化的磁场的短暂目标脉冲可以诱导局部颅内电流，进而刺激特定的大脑皮层神经元池。重复经颅磁刺激 (rTMS) 是应用一系列目标磁脉冲，旨在重复刺激特定的神经元池。 rTMS 方案现在被医生广泛用于治疗耐药性抑郁症。 Neurogate Medical 正在开发一种最先进的集成经颅磁刺激系统 (iTMS)，以促进和改进当前的 rTMS 协议。该研究项目将研究可包含在 iTMS 中的信号处理和模式识别算法，用于检测 rTMS 协议期间获取的脑电图信号中存在的癫痫前活动。检测到此类癫痫发作前活动将
