Models for Handling Uncertainty Fetal Heart Rate and ECG Analysis
Abstract
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.
