A PCA/ICA based Fetal ECG Extraction from Mother Abdominal Recordings by Means of a Novel Data-driven Approach to Fetal ECG Quality Assessment

Background: Fetal electrocardiography is a developing field that provides valuable information on the fetal health during pregnancy. By early diagnosis and treatment of fetal heart problems, more survival chance is given to the infant.Objective: Here, we extract fetal ECG from maternal abdominal recordings and detect R-peaks in order to recognize fetal heart rate. On the next step, we find a be...

Prototype Waveform Interpolation for Ecg Compression

This paper describes a prototype waveform interpolation approach for efficient electrocardiogram (ECG) compression. The algorithm is based on the interpolation of discrete cosine transform coefficients of the prototypes extracted from the linear predictive residuals of ECG frames. The proposed algorithm therefore exploits the inter-cycle and intra-cycle redundancies that are present in ECG sign...

An Emotion Recognition Approach based on Wavelet Transform and Second-Order Difference Plot of ECG

Emotion, as a psychophysiological state, plays an important role in human communications and daily life. Emotion studies related to the physiological signals are recently the subject of many researches. In This study a hybrid feature based approach was proposed to examine affective states. To this effect, Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals of 47 students were recorded using pictorial emotion elici...

Uniform Sampling of ECG Waveform of MIT-BIH Normal Sinus Rhythm Database at Desired Intervals

MIT-BIH Database is the standard ECG database which is used universally for ECG analysis purpose. MIT-BIH database for normal sinus rhythm is sampled at 128 Hz and the data is available at uniform intervals of 7. 8125 ms. To use this data for analysis purpose with various techniques like artificial neural networks, correlation techniques etc. , it is required to have samples at desired interval...
