The most relevant method to detect epileptic seizures is the electroencephalogram (EEG) based signal processing method which, due to the need for installing some electrodes on different places of the person's head, causes many movement problems. The aim of this research is to automatically and intelligently detect grand-mal epileptic seizures and also to recognize normal activities of a person suffering from the disease by video surveillance. In this paper we have used the combination of machine vision and machine learning techniques to automatically detect grand-mal epileptic seizure when the person is lying on the ground or on the bed. After subtracting the background from video frame sequences and extracting the image silhouette, appropriate geometrical features have been extracted and fed to the multi-class support vector machine as the input for automatically classifying the videos and assigning proper activity label. All the implementations have been done on MATLAB R2011a. In this intelligent system the accuracy of detecting and recognizing activities is 90.21%. Using this system in addition to reducing the number of human observers is very helpful for the on time and constant detection of the condition. The need for just a conventional video camera and a computer system makes it affordable for people with different incomes. Because it needs not to be in contact with the person's body, there is no movement problem too. High accuracy verifies the optimal performance of the system.

Using the unlabeled data in the semi-supervised learning can significantly improve the accuracy of supervised classification. But in some cases, it may dramatically reduce the accuracy of the classification. The reason of such degradation is incorrect labeling of unlabeled data. In this article, we propose the method for high confidence labeling of unlabeled data. The base classifier in the proposed algorithm is the support vector machine. In this method, the labeling is performed only on the set of the unlabeled data that is closer to the decision boundary from the threshold. This data is called informative data. the adding informative data to the training set has a great effect to achieve the optimal decision boundary if the predicted label is correctly. The Epsilon- neighborhood Algorithm (DBSCAN) is used to discover the labeling structure in the data space. The comparative experiments on the UCI dataset show that the proposed method outperforms than some of the previous work to achieve greater accuracy of the self-training semi-supervised classification.
