Abstract :
ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
disorder is a mental illness or a mental disorder, which
makes it very hard for the affected individuals to focus
and to pay attention. Analysis of EEG signals can be used
as a method of diagnosis for tumours other brain
disorders.
In this work attempt has been made to detect ADHD
syndrome by visualising the region of brain that shows
abnormality or excessive alpha waves. Data of several
ADHD and normal subjects of different age groups were
collected and analysed. The segmented data particularly
in the Alpha region is then subjected to extract the energy
that corresponds to it as Alpha waves will occur when our
brains shift into a relaxed and disengaged state and
Excessive frontal Alpha activity is proved to be often
associated with ADHD and depression. Finally, 3-D
plotting of the EEG signals will be done for the ease of
visualization and the doctor can use the image which is
generated to distinguish between normal and ADHD
affected subjects by analysing the image produced.
