چکیده

Methods for handling imprecision and uncertainty in computer-based analysis of fetal heart rate patterns and ECG wave shape during childbirth are presented. Computational intelligence models, based on fuzzy logic techniques, that explicitly handle the imprecision and uncertainty inherent in the data obtained during childbirth and methods of interpreting the data are proposed. The ability to handle imprecision and uncertainty in clinical data and method of interpretation is vital to remove a key obstacle in electronic fetal monitoring.

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...

INTELLIGENT TECHNIQUE OF CANCELING MATERNAL ECG IN FECG EXTRACTION

In this paper, we propose a technique of artificial intelligence called adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for canceling maternal electrocardiogram (MECG) in fetal electrocardiogram extraction (FECG).This technique is used to estimate the MECG present in the abdominal signal of a pregnant woman. The FECG is then extracted by subtracting the estimated MECG from the abdominal signal. P...

Analysis of Heart Rate Variability During Meditative and Non-Meditative State Using Analysis of Variance

In this paper the main objective is to quantify and compare the instantaneous value of heart rate for normal breathing patterns during Meditation and Non Meditation conditions. This paper involves Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) technique for the analysis of the heart rate variability patterns during the meditative and non meditative states. The analysis is divided into three stages i.e. data acqu...

Various Techniques for Fetal ECG Signal Monitoring

The paper present a various techniques that enables the investigations of the fetal heart rate (FHR) fluctuations. Later, the common problems associated with these techniques are discussed with some solutions. A non-invasive technique is also proposed for fetal ECG monitoring. The proposed system will be designed to measure the fetal heart rate variability for the evaluation of autonomic nervou...
