TABLE I. SIGNAL QUALITY INDICATORS V. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
Prototype System Shimmer3 A novel wearable sensor system for seizure monitoring of
pSQI 0.9049 0.5731 neonates with good modularity and scalability is presented.
baseSQI 0.9759 0.9943 More clinical trials are needed to validate the performance
of the algorithms, the maximum endurance of power supply
and sensitization aspects. Data fusion techniques and
The comparison of waveforms reveals the similarity of optimization algorithm will be explored in the future with the
