Newborn pain cry analysis based on pitch frequency tracking.

In English

Författare

Summary, in English

The aim of the newborn pain cry analysis is to test the hypothesis that cry can be used as a tool to detect signs of nocioceptive pain. Previous studies applying signal processing techniques to analyze the sound of these cries have been done. The subject of this paper is to adapt and improve the original method with the help of new signal processing methods. The pitch frequency is extracted from the waveform of the recorded babies' cries using time domain methods. The fluctuations of this parameter are analyzed in terms of jitter. In particular, a sliding buffer approach is presented, as well as an improvement of the Average Mean Difference Function (AMDF). Comparison between original and news results has been done.
