Cardiotocography analysis based on segmentation-based fractal texture decomposition and extreme learning machine

Fetal heart rate (FHR) has notable patterns for the assessment of fetal physiology and typical stress conditions. FHR signals are obtained using cardiotocography (CTG) devices also providing uterine activities simultaneously and fetal movements. In this study, a total of 88 records consisting of 44 normal and 44 hypoxic fetuses instances obtained from publicly available CTU-UHB database have been considered. The basic morphological features supporting clinical diagnosis, the powers of 4 different spectral bands and Lempel Ziv complexity have been used to define FHR signals. Also, it has been proposed to use segmentation-based fractal texture analysis (SFTA) to identify the signals more accurately. The obtained feature set was applied as the input to extreme learning machine (ELM) with 5-fold cross-validation method. According to experimental results, 79.65% of accuracy, 79.92% of specificity, and 80.95% of sensitivity were obtained. It was observed that the SFTA offers useful statistical features to distinguish normal and hypoxic fetuses.

Using wavelet transform for cardiotocography signals classification

As a fetal surveillance technique, cardiotocography (CTG) involves fetal heart rate (FHR), uterine contraction activities, and fetal movements. CTG is practiced as a primary diagnostic test throughout the world to identify events that may pose a risk to the fetus during pregnancy and delivery. In this work, FHR signals carrying vital information on fetus were analyzed by using Haar (haar), Daubechies (db5), and Symlets (sym5) mother wavelet families between levels 1 and 12. The traditionally used morphological and linear features are obtained from FHR. Also, p-norm, Frobenius form, infinity, and negative infinity norms which are obtained separately from the each of the wavelet components were used as a feature to support the classification. The obtained features were applied as an input to k-nearest neighbors (kNN) and artificial neural network (ANN) classifiers in order to discriminate the normal and hypoxic fetuses. According to experimental results, 90.51% and 90.21% classification success on the discrimination of normal and hypoxic fetuses were achieved by using haar at level 4 and kNN.

Hello sir, We are currently doing a project on synthesis of FHR signal, it will be greatly
helpful if you can help us in developing code.
Waiting for positive response from your side.

Electronic Request Management System

Abstract: Quality management with the most general terms; is a set of systematic studies carried out, the workflow process takes place in an organization, a continuous cycle of improvement in the standard of service and satisfaction in the services and the creation of the masses in order. In this study, the structure and functioning of web-based system called the Electronic Request Management System has been presented. It has been developed to ensure that the processing and management, receipt of the online request form produced under ISO 9001 quality studies in Bitlis Eren University. Electronic Request Management System provides on-line such as the realization of the process, creating requests, monitoring the requests for distribution to staff, termination and archiving, to receive services from the departments. In addition, the Electronic Request Management System offers a contribution of a management approach that is scalable, traceable and transparent with producing the wide ra

Otomatik Değerlendirme ve Geri Bildirim Sistemi

Resim
Otomatik Değerlendirme ve Geri Bildirim Sistemi Öğrenme-öğretme sürecini etkili kılan en önemli öğelerinden birisi geribildirimdir. Farklı geribildirim türlerinin ve yaklaşımlarının incelendiği birçok çalışmada görülmüştür ki geribildirim, öğrenme performansını arttırmakta ve bilgiyi daha kalıcı yapmaktadır. Bilgisayar ve iletişim teknolojilerindeki gelişmeler sonucunda ortaya çıkan çalışma alanlarından birisi de bilgisayar tabanlı geribildirim sistemlerinin tasarımıdır. Bazı bilgi ve becerilerin kazanılmasını desteklemek için çeşitli otomatik geribildirim sistemleri tasarlanmış ve etkilikleri araştırılmıştır. Bu çalışmada ise daha öncekilerden farklı olarak, temel bilgi teknolojileri derslerinde öğrencilerin kelime işlemci programı kullanırken yararlanabilecekleri bir otomatik geribildirim sisteminin oluşturulması ve daha sonra bu sistemin farklı kullanımları için etkinliğinin test edilmesi amaçlanmaktadır.  Genel olarak bu çalışmanın amacı hazırlanacak bir bilgisayar tabanlı ge
