Performance evaluation of multi-component instantaneous frequency estimation techniques for heart rate variability analysis
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Accurate instantaneous frequency (IF) estimation of the non-stationary heart rate signal is important in quantifying the heart rate variability (HRV) measures. This study compares the effectiveness of four IF estimation ...
Efficient phase estimation for the classification of digitally phase modulated signals using the cross-WVD: A performance evaluation and comparison with the S-transform
(2012 , Article)
This article presents a novel algorithm based on the cross-Wigner-Ville Distribution (XWVD) for optimum phase estimation within the class of phase shift keying signals. The proposed method is a special case of the genera ...
Instantaneous frequency based newborn EEG seizure characterisation
(2012 , Article)
The electroencephalogram (EEG), used to noninvasively monitor brain activity, remains the most reliable tool in the diagnosis of neonatal seizures. Due to their nonstationary and multi-component nature, newborn EEG seizures ...
Detection of perinatal hypoxia using time-frequency analysis of heart rate variability signals
(2013 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a time-frequency approach to detect perinatal hypoxia by characterizing the nonstationary nature of heart rate variability (HRV) signals. Quadratic time-frequency distributions (TFDs) are used to represent ...
Time-frequency analysis of heart rate variability in neonatal piglets exposed to hypoxia
(2011 , Conference Paper)
To determine whether the sympathetic nervous system plays any role in the inter-individual variation of cardiovascular response to hypoxia in newborns, neonatal heart rate variability (HRV) analysis was used to assess ...
A cross-terms geometry based method for components instantaneous frequency estimation using the Cross Wigner-Ville distribution
(2012 , Conference Paper)
A novel method for the signal components instantaneous frequency (IF) estimation based on the CrossWigner-Ville distribution (XWVD) is presented. The cross-terms in the XWVD are deliberately formed between the analyzed ...
Evaluation of the modified S-transform for timefrequency synchrony analysis and source localisation
(2012 , Article)
This article considers the problem of phase synchrony and coherence analysis using a modified version of the S-transform, referred to here as the Modified S-transform (MST). This is a novel and important time-frequency ...
On the selection of time-frequency features for improving the detection and classification of newborn EEG seizure signals and other abnormalities
(2012 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents new time-frequency features for seizure detection in newborn EEG signals. These features are obtained by translating some relevant time features or frequency features to the joint time-frequency domain. ...
A passive DSP approach to fetal movement detection for monitoring fetal health
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Fetal movement can help clinicians understand fetal functional development. Active methods for fetal monitoring such as ultrasound are expensive and there are objections to their long term usage. This paper presents a ...
