โœฆ Synopsis

A previously designed test program for the determination of the temporal characteristics of intrauterine pressure data detects the onset time, the peak time and the end time of uterine contractions utilizing simple methods of calculus (Am. J. Obstet. GJznec.. 120: 496 ( )). The basic algorithm has been improved by a routine which maximizes the crosscorrelation coefficient between a set of visually generated event flags and the program generated event flags. The optimized set of logic generates a cross-correlation coefficient of 0.753 for a data file with selected artifact conditions. The corresponding outcome for that portion of the file with an absence of artifacts is as high as 0.899.

## Abstract In this work a methodology is presented for the rigorous optimization of nonlinear programming problems in which the objective function and (or) some constraints are represented by noisy implicit black box functions. The special application considered is the optimization of modular proc
