A computer-implemented method for detecting pathological brain activity patterns from a scalp electroencephalographic signal, the method including the steps of obtaining (A) an electroencephalographic signal as a function of multiple channels and time; identifying (C), for each channel, the zero-crossings of the electroencephalographic signal over a fixed threshold; generating a zero-crossing representation of at least a segment of the obtained electroencephalographic signal with the identified zero-crossings; obtaining (D) a reference family of real functions of time and channels from a zero-crossing statistical analysis of zero-crossing representation of pre-recorded electroencephalographic signals; calculating (E) a matching score by comparing the zero-crossing representation of a segment of the electroencephalographic signal with at least one reference function from the reference family of functions; and computing the matching score as a function of time by sliding the at least one reference function from the reference family of functions over the electroencephalographic signal.
