Information theoretic measures of perinatal cardiotocography synchronization
We examined the use of bivariate mutual information (MI) and its conditional variant transfer entropy (TE) to address synchronization of perinatal uterine pressure (UP) and fetal heart rate (FHR). We used a nearest-neighbour based Kraskov entropy estimator, suitable to the non-Gaussian distributions...
