This paper shows how the dynamics of the PhotoPlethysmoGraphic (PPG) signal, an easily accessible biological signal from which valuable diagnostic information can be extracted, of young and healthy individuals performs at different…
Biophysical signals such as Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Photoplethysmogram (PPG) are key to the sensing of vital parameters for wellbeing. Coincidentally, ECG and PPG are signals, which provide a "different window" into the same phenomena,…
In the first half of the 20th century, a first pulse oximeter was available to measure blood flow changes in the peripheral vascular net. However, it was not until recent times the PhotoPlethysmoGraphic (PPG) signal used to monitor many…
Clinical laboratory tests provide essential biochemical measurements for diagnosis and treatment, but are limited by intermittent and invasive sampling. In contrast, photoplethysmogram (PPG) is a non-invasive, continuously recorded signal…
The study of experimental data is a relevant task in several physical, chemical and biological applications. In particular, the analysis of chaotic dynamics in cardiac systems is crucial as it can be related to some pathological…
We describe a new test for determining whether a given deterministic dynamical system is chaotic or nonchaotic. (This is an alternative to the usual approach of computing the largest Lyapunov exponent.) Our method is a 0-1 test for chaos…
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is one of the most widely captured biosignals for clinical prediction tasks, yet PPG-based algorithms are typically trained on small-scale datasets of uncertain quality, which hinders meaningful algorithm…
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…
Biometric authentication prospered because of its convenient use and security. Early generations of biometric mechanisms suffer from spoofing attacks. Recently, unobservable physiological signals (e.g., Electroencephalogram,…
In this paper, we present a theoretical justification of the 0-1 test for chaos. In particular, we show that with probability one, the test yields 0 for periodic and quasiperiodic dynamics, and 1 for sufficiently chaotic dynamics.
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a non-invasive technology that measures changes in blood volume in the microvascular bed of tissue. It is commonly used in medical devices such as pulse oximeters and wrist worn heart rate monitors to monitor…
The oscillations of the human heart rate are inherently complex and non-linear -- they are best described by mathematical chaos, and they present a challenge when applied to the practical domain of cardiovascular health monitoring in…
We examine the regenerative cutting process by using a single degree of freedom non-smooth model with a friction component and a time delay term. Instead of the standard Lyapunov exponent calculations, we propose a statistical 0-1 test…

Motivated by the need to statistically quantify differences between modern (complex) data-sets which commonly result as high-resolution measurements of stochastic processes varying over a continuum, we propose novel testing procedures to…
Stress has become a fact in people's lives. It has a significant effect on the function of body systems and many key systems of the body including respiratory, cardiovascular, and even reproductive systems are impacted by stress. It can be…
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a non-invasive and economical technique to extract vital signs of the human body. Although it has been widely used in consumer and research grade wrist devices to track a user's physiology, the PPG signal is…
In the analysis of biological time series, the state space comprises a framework for the study of systems with presumably deterministic properties. However, a physiological experiment typically captures an observable, or, in other words, a…
