The goal of the project is to develop a predictive model to assess the risk of preterm delivery. Using signal analysis of electromiogram of uterus during pregnancy, we try to estimate the risk for preterm delivery. Signal analysis include linear time- and frequency-domain techniques and non-linear techniques such as: correlation dimension, computation of information-based similarity index and entropy analysis.
The center is organized within the ARRS-financed Network of research infrastructure centers at University of Ljubljana. The collaborating partners in the center are the Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Education, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, and Faculty of Computer and Information Science.
