The monitoring of fetal heart being essential in the second trimester of the prenatal periods. The abnormalities in the child heart rate has to be identified in the early stages, so as to take essential remedies for the babies in the womb, or would enable the physician to be ready for he complication on the delivery and the further treatment after the baby is received. The traditional methodologies being ineffective in detecting the abnormalities leading to fatalities, paves way for the granular computing based fuzzy set, that requires only a limited set of data for training, and helps in the eluding of the unwanted data set that are far beyond the optimal. Further the methods performance is analyzed to evident the improvement in the fetal heart rate detection in terms of prediction accuracy and the detection accuracy.

A new expression for the prediction of longitudinal dispersion coefficient in natural rivers, using genetic algorithms, is proposed. The expression uses hydraulic and geometric characteristics of rivers, which are readily available. For performance evaluation, using published field data, results of coefficient prediction by the new expression and by the other reported expressions are compared. According to various performance indices, it is concluded that the new formula predicts the longitudinal dispersion coefficient more accurately. Sensitive analysis performed on input parameters indicates the ratio of the cross-sectional mean velocity to the bottom shear velocity to be the most influencing parameter for accurate prediction of the longitudinal dispersion coefficient.
