Investigating an Optimal Signal Epoch Length for Cardiotocographic Classification

This work focuses on investigating an optimal foetal heart rate (FHR) signal segment to be considered for automatic cardiotocographic (CTG) classification. The main idea is to evaluate a set of signal segments of different length and location based on their classification performance. For this purpo...
