An adaptive threshold with α=1.30 achieved 65% EEG data compression gain with 4.007 seconds processing time, balancing compression ratio and accuracy.
The proposed adaptive thresholding and multi-shift coding algorithm effectively compresses high-sampling-rate EEG data, achieving a 65% compression gain to optimize storage and bandwidth requirements.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Electroencephalography (EEG) data comes with a large size due to the data's high sampling rate. Therefore, compressing EEG data is very important for storing the EEG files efficiently with less space and bandwidth capacity requirement. This research develops an efficient system for EEG data compression. The recorded EEG data are preprocessed and scaled using certain Resolution Factor and truncated to integer numbers, then the scaled EEG samples are classified into small and large vectors using a proposed adaptive thresholding which is based on using three computed factors: Standard deviation, Average of samples (Mean), and the multiplier factor (α). Then, each sample is passed through one of three procedures, then saved into the output file using multi-shift coding algorithm The best values are chosen as the tradeoff between the compression ratio and the processing time. The results indicated that the value of α parameter is significantly affects the threshold calculation, where the best-proven value for α is 1.30; the system achieves a compression gain of 65% while managing a reasonable processing time of 4.007 Second. The resolution factor affected the Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MEA) significantly, but it had a slight effect on the Compression Ratio (Cr). The α parameter has a great effect on Cr and a slight on MSE. The findings show a consistent trend whereby, as the resolution factor gradually decreases from 2 to 0.1, a concurrent decrease is observed in the MAE, MSE, Bitrate, Cr, and the overall processing time.
