Dear Researchers,
I hope this message finds you well. I am conducting PhD research in Computer Science on fetal heart rate analysis.
I am encountering difficulties in importing and using the CTU-UHB dataset (.dat files) in Python. Could you please provide guidance or a file to help me properly utilize this dataset? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support.
You can use the csv module to read a .dat file and write it as a .csv file using these steps:
Here is an example, I hope you can modify the code as you see it fit:
import csv
with open('my_file.dat', 'r') as dat_file:
with open('my_file.csv', 'w', newline='') as csv_file:
csv_writer = csv.writer(csv_file)
for row in dat_file:
row = [value.strip() for value in row.split('|')]
csv_writer.writerow(row)
From here on you will definitely not done yet, I advise you to run EDAs on the dataset first to familiarized yourself with it before undergoing data cleaning/wrangling.
