In this paper we present an application of multi-hypothesis AdaBoost to detect epileptiform activity from electrophysiological recordings. While existing boosting methods do not account automatically for the sequence information that is available when analyzing time-series data, we present a recurrent extension to AdaBoost, and show that it improves classification accuracy in our application domain.}, identifier = {05282573}, }
