Abstract Fetal health care is vital in ensuring the health of pregnant women and the fetus. Regular check-ups need to be taken by the mother to determine the status of the fetus’ growth and identify any potential problems. To know the status of the fetus, doctors monitor blood reports, Ultrasounds, cardiotocography (CTG) data, etc. Still, in this research, we have considered CTG data, which provides information on heart rate and uterine contractions during pregnancy. Several researchers have proposed various methods for classifying the status of fetus growth. Manual processing of CTG data is time-consuming and unreliable.… More >

Abstract Cardiotocography measures the fetal heart rate in the fetus during pregnancy to ensure physical health because cardiotocography gives data about fetal heart rate and uterine shrinkages which is very beneficial to detect whether the fetus is normal or suspect or pathologic. Various cardiotocography measures infer wrongly and give wrong predictions because of human error. The traditional way of reading the cardiotocography measures is the time taken and belongs to numerous human errors as well. Fetal condition is very important to measure at numerous stages and give proper medications to the fetus for its well-being. In… More >

Abstract : Cardiotocography (CTG) represents the fetus’s health inside the womb during labor. However, assessment of its readings can be a highly subjective process depending on the expertise of the obstetrician. Digital signals from fetal monitors acquire parameters (i.e., fetal heart rate, contractions, acceleration). Objective:: This paper aims to classify the CTG readings containing imbalanced healthy, suspected, and pathological fetus readings. Method:: We perform two sets of experiments. Firstly, we employ five classifiers: Random Forest (RF), Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost), Categorical Boosting (CatBoost), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM) without over-sampling to classify CTG… More >
