Using a smart method to automatically detect different stages of epilepsy in medical applications, to reduce the workload of physicians in analyzing epilepsy data by visual inspection is one of the major challenges in recent years. One of the problems of automatic identification of different stages of epilepsy is extraction of desirable features which can make the most distinction between different stages of epilepsy. The process of finding the proper features is generally time consuming. This study presents a new approach for the automatic identification of different epileptic stages. In this paper, a sparse represantion-based classification (SRC) with proposed dictionary learning is used to automatically identify the different stages of epilepsy using the EEG signal. The proposed method achieves 100% accuracy, sensitivity and specificity in 8 out of 9 scenarios. Also the proposed algorithm is resistant to Gaussian noise up to 0 decibels. The results show that using the proposed algorithm to identify different epileptic stages has a higher success rate than other similar methods.
