A key aspect of its diagnosis is the presence of seizures that occur without a known cause and the potential for new seizures to occur. Machine learning has shown potential as a cost-effective alternative for rapid diagnosis. In this study, we review the current state of machine learning in the detection and prediction of epileptic seizures. The objective of this study is to portray the existing machine learning methods for seizure prediction. Internet bibliographical searches were conducted to identify relevant literature on the topic. Through cross-referencing from key articles, additional references were obtained to provide a comprehensive overview of the techniques. As the aim of this paper aims is not a pure bibliographical review of the subject, the publications here cited have been selected among many others based on their number of citations. To implement accurate diagnostic and treatment tools, it is necessary to achieve a balance between prediction time, sensitivity, and specificity. This balance can be achieved using deep learning algorithms. The best performance and results are often achieved by combining multiple techniques and features, but this approach can also increase computational requirements.  \nKeywords: seizure prediction; machine learning; epilepsy; electroencephalogram  \n1 Introduction  \nEpilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects over 39 million people in the United States [1], making it the third most common disorder after stroke and migraines [2] . This chronic condition is known to impact the quality of life significantly, making it a focus of ongoing research and development of new therapies. According to the International League Against Epilepsy, an epileptic seizure is a “transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain” [3] .  \n*Corresponding authors: Marco Zurdo-Tabernero and Ángel Canal-Alonso, BISITE Research Group, University of Salamanca, Sala  \nmanca, Spain, [E-mail: marcohperez@usal.es](E-mail: marcohperez@usal.es) (M.
