Epilepsy is a neurological condition caused by sudden onsets of electrical activity in the brain. This results in frequent, uncommon seizures, which can lead to severe physical consequences. In a clinical setting, data recorded using EEG (Electroencephalogram) is used to help diagnose the condition. This research focuses on the use of Short-Term Fourier transform (STFT) and feature extraction in the EEG data for the use in a majority voting model using logistic regression (LR) to detect the presence of epileptic seizures in the five EEG frequency bands ( i.e. Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Theta). To quantify, a number of evaluation metrics have been calculated. Overall, the model was able to achieve an accuracy of up to 92%.
