The brain signal or Electroencephalogram (EEG) has been proved as one of the most important bio-signal that deals with a number of problems and disorders related to the human being. Epilepsy is one of the most commonly known disorders found in humans. The application of EEG in epilepsy related research and treatment is now a very common practice. Variety of smart tools and algorithms exist to assist the experts in taking decision related to the treatment to be provided to an epileptic patient. However, web based applications or tools are still needed that can assist those doctors and experts, who are not having such existing smart tools for EEG analysis with them. In the current work, a web based system named WEBspike has been proposed that breaks the geographical boundary in assisting doctors in taking proper and fast decision regarding the treatment of epileptic patient. The proposed system receives the EEG data from various users through internet and processes it for Epileptic Spike (ES) patterns present in it. It sends back a report to the user regarding the appearance of ES pattern present in the submitted EEG data. The average spike recognition rate obtained by the system with the test files, was 99.09% on an average.
