Most heart diseases are associated with and reflected by the sounds that the heart
produces. Heart auscultation, defined as listening to the heart sound, has been a very …

The identification of the exact positions of the first and second heart sounds within a
phonocardiogram (PCG), or heart sound segmentation, is an essential step in the automatic …

Purpose: Digital recording of heart sounds commonly known as Phonocardiogram (PCG)
signal, is a convenient primary diagnostic tool for analyzing condition of heart …

One dimensional Doppler Ultrasound (DUS) is a commonly applied technique for fetal heart
rate monitoring, but it can also be used to identify the timings of fetal cardiac valve motion …

The phonocardiography (PCG) is an important technique for the diagnosis of several heart
conditions. However, the PCG signal is highly prone to noise, which can be an obstacle for …

Despite the advances in fetal healthcare, in Australia around 9-10 out of 1000 babies die in
perinatal period, which is defined as starting from 22 weeks of pregnancy and extending to …

A soft-computing method attenuating noise from heart sound (HS) signal for wearable e-
healthcare device is proposed. The HS signal is decomposed by third-level wavelet packet …

We present a Matlab framework for heart sound processing and analysis. This framework
