چکیده

This paper presents the evaluation of mental stress assessment using heart rate variability. The activity of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is studied by means of frequency analysis of the Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. Spectral decomposition of the Heart Rate Variability before smoking and after smoking was obtained. Mental stress is accompanied by dynamic changes in ANS activity. ECG signal analysis is popular for assessing the activities of autonomic nervous system. The approach consists of 1) Recording the ECG signals, 2) Signal processing using wavelets, 3) Fuzzy evaluation techniques to provide robustness in ECG signal analysis, 4) Monitoring the function of ANS under different stress conditions. Our experiment involves 20 physically fit persons under different conditions. Fuzzy technique has been used to model the experimental data.

A Framework for Optimal Attribute Evaluation and Selection in Hesitant Fuzzy Environment Based on Enhanced Ordered Weighted Entropy Approach for Medical Dataset

Background: In this paper, a generic hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) model for clustering various ECG beats according to weights of attributes is proposed. A comprehensive review of the electrocardiogram signal classification and segmentation methodologies indicates that algorithms which are able to effectively handle the nonstationary and uncertainty of the signals should be used for ECG analysis. Ex...
