Construction and validation of an algorithm to separate focal and generalised epilepsy using clinical variables: A comparison of machine learning approaches

CONCLUSION: A clinical algorithm with eight variables is effective and accurate at separating focal from generalised epilepsy. It should be useful in resource-limited settings, by epilepsy-inexperienced doctors, to help determine epilepsy type and therefore optimal ASMs for individual patients, without the need for EEG or neuroimaging.PMID:38669972 | DOI:10.1016/j.yebeh.2024.109793
