Amplitude estimation is a fundamental quantum algorithmic primitive that enables quantum computers to achieve quadratic speedups for a large class of statistical estimation problems, including Monte Carlo methods. The main drawback from the…
Objective: Murmurs are abnormal heart sounds, identified by experts through cardiac auscultation. The murmur grade, a quantitative measure of the murmur intensity, is strongly correlated with the patient's clinical condition. This work aims…
Fetal movement count monitoring is one of the most commonly used methods of assessing fetal well-being. While few methods are available to monitor fetal movements, they consist of several adverse qualities such as unreliability as well as…
Preterm infants with very low birth weight suffer from a high risk of intra-ventricular hemorrhage(IVH) and other serious diseases. To improve the clinical risk assessment of preterm infants and develop potential clinically makers for the…
The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) usually computes the same number of frequency components as the frame length while overlapping adjacent time frames by more than half. As a result, the number of components of a spectrogram matrix…
Adequate fetal and neonatal development depend upon the presence of a normal acid-base environment during pregnancy and the smooth transition from intra-uterine to extra-uterine life. Current methods to assess fetal pH and acid-base status…
Cardiac auscultation is an essential point-of-care method used for the early diagnosis of heart diseases. Automatic analysis of heart sounds for abnormality detection is faced with the challenges of additive noise and sensor-dependent…
Objective: Sleep spindles contain crucial brain dynamics information. We introduce the novel non-linear time-frequency analysis tool 'Concentration of Frequency and Time' (ConceFT) to create an interpretable automated algorithm for sleep…
Auscultation, particularly heart sound, is a non-invasive technique that provides essential vital sign information. Recently, self-supervised acoustic representation foundation models (FMs) have been proposed to offer insights into…
The massive scale of modern AI accelerators presents critical challenges to traditional fault assessment methodologies, which face prohibitive computational costs and provide poor coverage of critical failure modes. This paper introduces…
Audio compression has become one of the basic multimedia technologies. Choosing an efficient compression scheme that is capable of preserving the signal quality while providing a high compression ratio is desirable in the different…
The Rapid Iterative FiTting (RIFT) parameter inference algorithm provides a simulation-based inference approach to efficient, highly-parallelized parameter inference for GW sources. Previous editions of RIFT have conservatively optimized…
Cardiovascular diseases stand as the primary global cause of mortality. Among the various imaging techniques available for visualising the heart and evaluating its function, echocardiograms emerge as the preferred choice due to their safety…

NI-fECG have emerged as alternative for fetal arrhythmia monitoring. But due to multi-signal waveform they are tough to understand and due to highly varying and complex nature traditional fiducial methods cannot be applied. Further, it has…
Emotional state recognition through speech is being a very interesting research topic nowadays. Using subliminal information of speech, denominated as prosody, it is possible to recognize the emotional state of the person. One of the main…
Artificial intelligence-enhanced electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) has shown promise as an inexpensive, ubiquitous, and non-invasive screening tool to detect left ventricular systolic dysfunction in pediatric congenital heart disease. However,…
Systolic murmurs are extra heart sounds that occur during the contraction phase of the cardiac cycle, often indicating heart abnormalities caused by turbulent blood flow. Their intensity, pitch, and quality vary, requiring precise…
\begin{abstract} The frequencies of the elements in a data stream are an important statistical measure and the task of estimating them arises in many applications within data analysis and machine learning. Two of the most popular algorithms…
Fast Fourier Transform based phase screen simulations give accurate results only when the screen size ($G$) is much larger than the outer scale parameter ($L_0$). Otherwise, they fall short in correctly predicting both the low and high…
