In this work, nonlinear temporal features from multi-channel EEGs are used for the classification of Alzheimers disease patients from healthy individuals. This was achieved by temporal manifold learning using Gaussian Process Latent Variable Models (GPLVM) as a nonlinear dimensionality reduction technique. Classification of the extracted features was undertaken using a nonlinear Support Vector Machine. Comparisons were made against the linear counterpart, Principle Component Analysis while exploring the effect of the time window or EEG epoch length used. It was demonstrated that temporal manifold learning using GPLVM is better in extracting features that attain high separability and prediction accuracy. This work aims to set the significance of using GPLVM temporal manifold learning for EEG feature extraction in the classification of Alzheimers disease.
