Suppressing seizure via optimal electrical stimulation to the hub of epileptic brain network
<|reference_start|>Suppressing seizure via optimal electrical stimulation to the hub of epileptic brain network: The electrical stimulation to the seizure onset zone (SOZ) serves as an efficient approach to seizure suppression. Recently, seizure dynamics have gained widespread attendance in its network propagation mechanisms. Compared with the direct stimulation to SOZ, other brain network-level approaches that can effectively suppress epileptic seizures remain under-explored. In this study, we introduce a platform equipped with a system identification module and a control strategy module, to validate the effectiveness of the hub of the epileptic brain network in suppressing seizure. The identified surrogate dynamics show high predictive performance in reconstructing neural dynamics which enables the model predictive framework to achieve accurate neural stimulation. The electrical stimulation on the hub of the epileptic brain network shows remarkable performance as the direct stimulation of SOZ in suppressing seizure dynamics. Underpinned by network control theory, our platform offers a general tool for the validation of neural stimulation.<|reference_end|>
