Why the study?
Growing interest in AI-based analysis of EEG signals has highlighted its potential for monitoring cognitive states and early diagnosis of neurological disorders, warranting systematic evaluation.
AI-based analysis of EEG signals using machine learning and deep learning shows significant potential for clinical applications in diagnosing neurological disorders and brain-computer interfaces.
May warrant increased AI-EEG integration for neurological diagnostics; extends evidence base for brain-computer interface research.
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of electroencephalography (EEG) signals. This surge has made the potential of EEG more evident, both in monitoring cognitive states and in the early diagnosis of neurological disorders. This review systematically evaluates the academic literature from the past decade focusing on the processing of EEG signals through machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and other alternative techniques. The study compares personalized ML models (e.g., SVM, Random Forest) with wavelet decomposition–based optimized approaches and further analyzes the performance of Hilbert transform–based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures, label-free autoencoder frameworks, and multi-architecture DL systems in contemporary brain–computer interface (BCI) applications. In addition, incremental learning models based on multimodal data fusion are reviewed in the context of diagnosing disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy. The findings indicate that EEG–AI integration holds substantial potential for both research and clinical applications.
