    This study compares five algorithms for non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram extraction: ABC, GWO, MFO, PSO, and WOA.

  • 2

    The algorithms were evaluated based on their accuracy in detecting R-peaks in fetal electrocardiogram signals.

  • 3

    GWO, MFO, PSO, and WOA showed similar performance, while the ABC algorithm performed poorly and exhibited instability.

  • 4

    The study suggests further investigation into hybrid approaches and modifications to the ABC algorithm to improve its accuracy.

  • 5

    NI-fECG offers advantages over traditional cardiotocography, including passive monitoring and additional feature analysis.
