Abstract (EN):
In this study, fetal heart rate signal is used to exemplify the performance of compression and entropy based approaches in biometric identification. A total of 167 pairs of traces from real fetus are analyzed under the popular normalized compression distance, the recently proposed normalized relative compression measure and mutual information measure. The best performance was achieved with the normalized compression distance resulting in a misclassification rate of 12%. Fetal heart rate could be a relevant feature for biometric identification models, namely in multiple pregnancies. © 2018 IEEE.
