Synthetic cerebral oxygenation signals for preterm infants

This code generates a synthetic cerebral oxygenation signal (rcSO2). This is meant to be similar to the real rcSO2 acquired by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). These signals are specific to preterm infants born <32 weeks of gestation and include transient-like events. Full details can be found in:

Please cite one of the above references if using this code to generate new results.

Requirements

Matlab (R2017 or newer, Mathworks) with the signal processing toolbox or Octave (v4.2.1 or newer, GNU Octave) with the signal package (v1.3.2).

Use

Set paths in Matlab/Octave, or do so using the load_curdir function:

  >> load_curdir;

Generate 10 rcSO2 synthetic signals:

  >> dur=12*3600; Fs=1/6;
  >> x_st=signal_test_transient_NIRS(dur, Fs, 10);
