Identification of pregnancy in women based on fingertip pulse using a multi-feature fusion neural network model.

Abstract

This study proposes a rapid method for determining pregnancy status based on fingertip pulse signals. A finger pulse sensor collects data, which is processed into unified multimodal signals. The Bamboo-Net model, combining ResNet, LSTM, and 1D-CNN, extracts key features from time, frequency, and time-frequency domains. Tested on 346 training and 138 testing samples, the model achieves 91% accuracy with 6 s input, outperforming mainstream methods. Recognition rates for mid and late pregnancy are higher than for early pregnancy, highlighting its potential for practical applications.
