Automatic electroencephalogram analysis apparatus and method

An automatic electroencephalogram analysis apparatus comprising:

• an input unit for inputting time-series electroencephalographic data of a subject;
• a feature parameter calculating unit for calculating a feature parameter pattern including a plurality of kinds of feature parameters from the time-series electroencephalographic data;
• a separation index calculating unit for calculating a separation index between a reference data space formed by use of reference learning data concerning the feature parameter pattern, and the feature parameter pattern calculated for the time-series electroencephalographic data of the subject;. and
• a judgment unit for judging existence/absence of disease including neurological disease based on the calculated separation index.
