Özet

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of

electroencephalography (EEG) signals. This surge has made the potential of EEG more evident, both in monitoring

cognitive states and in the early diagnosis of neurological disorders. This review systematically evaluates the academic

literature from the past decade focusing on the processing of EEG signals through machine learning (ML), deep learning

(DL), and other alternative techniques. The study compares personalized ML models (e.g., SVM, Random Forest) with

wavelet decomposition–based optimized approaches and further analyzes the performance of Hilbert transform–based

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures, label-free autoencoder frameworks, and multi-architecture DL systems

in contemporary brain–computer interface (BCI) applications. In addition, incremental learning models based on multimodal

data fusion are reviewed in the context of diagnosing disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy. The findings

indicate that EEG–AI integration holds substantial potential for both research and clinical applications.
