Breathing is one of the most important body functions because it provides it with oxygen, which is vital for energy production. In addition, the removal of carbon dioxide actively regulates the acid-base level, which is essential for the…
Echocardiography (ECHO) video is widely used for cardiac examination. In clinical, this procedure heavily relies on operator experience, which needs years of training and maybe the assistance of deep learning-based systems for enhanced…
The CVS is composed of numerous interacting and dynamically regulated physiological subsystems which each generate measurable periodic components such that the CVS can itself be presented as a system of weakly coupled oscillators. The…
The onset of old age brings physiological and mental changes, with anxiety and depression being common mental disorders that can trigger other health issues and reduce lifespan. However, due to a global shortage of mental health…
Past research on recognizing human affect has made use of a variety of physiological sensors in many ways. Nonetheless, how affective dynamics are influenced in the context of human daily life has not yet been explored. In this work, we…
This article proposes a dynamical system modeling approach for the analysis of longitudinal data of self-regulated systems experiencing multiple excitations. The aim of such an approach is to focus on the evolution of a signal (e.g., heart…
Good quality sleep is essential for good health and sleep monitoring becomes a vital research topic. This paper provides a low cost, continuous and contactless WiFi-based vital signs (breathing and heart rate) monitoring method. In…
Recent work has shown that a person's sympathetic arousal can be estimated from facial videos alone using basic signal processing. This opens up new possibilities in the field of telehealth and stress management, providing a non-invasive…
With the increasing demands of emotion comprehension and regulation in our daily life, a customized music-based emotion regulation system is introduced by employing current EEG information and song features, which predicts users' emotion…
Precise measurement of physiological signals is critical for the effective monitoring of human vital signs. Recent developments in computer vision have demonstrated that signals such as pulse rate and respiration rate can be extracted from…
Transitions in the dynamics of complex systems can be characterized by changes in the synchronization behavior of their components. Taking the human cardio-respiratory system as an example and using an automated procedure for screening the…
