Biography

Borbála (Bori) Hunyadi was born in Budapest, Hungary. She received a MSc degree in electrical and computer engineering from the Pazmany Peter Catholic University in 2009 and a PhD in electrical engineering from the Department of Electrical Engineering at KU Leuven in 2014, where she continued to work as a postdoctoral researcher. 

In 2018 she was awarded one of the “Delft Technology Fellowships” for outstanding female academic researchers. In October 2018 she joined the Circuits and Systems (now Signal Processing Systems) group at TU Delft as an assistant professor. She is the co-director of the Delft Tensor AI Lab (DeTAIL).

Her research interests include biomedical signal processing and machine learning for biomedical pattern recognition. More specifically, she is interested in multichannel and multimodal signal processing and fusion, blind source separation, tensor decompositions and wearable signal processing to better understand healthy and pathological physiology, in particular in neuroscience applications.

She was the secretary of the IEEE EMBC Benelux chapter between 2019-2024. Currently she serves the vice-chair of the EURASIP technical area committee on biomedical signal and image processing. She is associate editor for the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine (Columns and Forum) and Frontiers in Neuroscience (Brain Imaging Methods).

    Abstract: ... Nonconvulsive epileptic seizures (NCSz) and nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) are two neurological entities associated with increment in morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. In a previous work, we introduced a method which accurately detected NCSz in EEG data (referred here as ‘Batch method’). However, this approach was less effective when the EEG features identified at the beginning of the recording changed over time. Such pattern drift is an issue that causes failures of automated seizure detection methods. This paper presents a support vector machine (SVM)-based incremental learning method for NCSz detection that for the first time addresses the seizure evolution in EEG records from patients with epileptic disorders and from ICU having NCSz. To implement the incremental learning SVM, three methodologies are tested. These approaches differ in the way they reduce the set of potentially available support vectors that are used to build the decision function of the classifier. To evaluate the suitability of the three incremental learning approaches proposed here for NCSz detection, first, a comparative study between the three methods is performed. Secondly, the incremental learning approach with the best performance is compared with the Batch method and three other batch methods from the literature. From this comparison, the incremental learning method based on maximum relevance minimum redundancy (MRMR_IL) obtained the best results. MRMR_IL method proved to be an effective tool for NCSz detection in a real-time setting, achieving sensitivity and accuracy values above 99%.
