초록

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurological disorders in children. The diagnosis of ADHD in children is based on the interviews and observation reports of parents or teachers who have stayed with them. Since this approach cannot avoid long observation time and the bias of observers, another approach based on Electroencephalography(EEG) is emerging. The goal of this study is to develop an assistive tool for diagnosing ADHD by EEG classification. This study explores the frequency bands of EEG and extracts the implied features in them by using the proposed CNN. The CNN architecture has three Convolution-MaxPooling blocks and two fully connected layers. As a result of the experiment, the 30-60 Hz gamma band showed dominant characteristics in identifying EEG, and when other frequency bands were added to the gamma band, the EEG classification performance was improved. They also show that the proposed CNN is effective in detecting ADHD in children.
