Abstract

Described herein are methods for identifying a labor state in a pregnant female, including: receiving an input indicating a gestational age; acquiring a physiological signal; processing the physiological signal to extract a parameter of interest; and feeding the parameter of interest into a machine learning model. The machine learning model is configured to: determine a first labor probability based on the parameter of interest, determine a second labor probability based on the parameter of interest or a second parameter of interest and the gestational age, and classify the labor state of the pregnant female based on the first and second labor probability.
