Fetal Cardiac Arrhythmia Detection using enhanced Blind Source Separation Technique

Gayathri Krishnan S, Sajeer M  

 

Abstract - The welfare of fetus in the womb of mother during pregnancy can be monitor by inspecting the fetal electrocardiogram waveform. In signal processing field, there are various techniques for analysing this purpose. Tracking fetal ECG (fECG) can provide important details for detecting fetal cardiac arrhythmia, thus treatment can be done as early as possible and hence we can diminish the mortality rate of babies. In this paper, a novel method for detecting cardiac arrhythmia in fetus in early stages of pregnancy and to classify the cardiac arrhythmia into five classes using enhanced blind source separation technique (BSS) is proposed. The scheme is based on WASOBI based BSS for pre-processing and extraction of fetal ECG. Feature selection is manipulated using the Peak detection algorithm and Multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM), is employed for the classification of fetal cardiac arrhythmia. .
