According to World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases globally [1]. It predisposes individuals to experience recurrent seizures. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a technique used to measure the electrical activity of the brain signals for the diagnosis of neurological disorders, and it also paves the way for seizure detection using scalp and intra-cranial EEGs as the input data. In this paper, we have proposed a method for non-linear feature based epileptic seizure detection by extracting five features namely Entropy, Mean, Skewness, Standard Deviation and Band Power. The classification techniques used are K-nearest neighbor (KNN) and Support vector machine (SVM) which gave an accuracy of 95.33% and 100% respectively.
