Accurate detection of epileptic spikes in EEG signals is crucial for effective treatment. In this study, we propose a hybrid method that combines wavelet transform with Recursive Least Squares (RLS) adaptive filtering to enhance EEG signals by removing artifacts. The method's performance was evaluated using the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and Mean Squared Error (MSE), demonstrating superior artifact removal performance compared to traditional approaches. Wavelet-based statistical features were then extracted and classified using a Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), which is recognized for its high accuracy and computational efficiency. The proposed method achieved a classification accuracy of approximately 91.86% on real-world EEG data.</p> https://www.journalaiai.com/index.php/aiai/article/download/49/29
