Photoplethysmogram (PPG) is increasingly used to provide monitoring of the cardiovascular system under ambulatory conditions. Wearable devices like smartwatches use PPG to allow long term unobtrusive monitoring of heart rate in free living…
Cardiovascular disease has become one of the most significant threats endangering human life and health. Recently, Electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring has been transformed into remote cardiac monitoring by Holter surveillance. However, the…
Resting heart rate (RHR) is an important biomarker of cardiovascular health and mortality, but tracking it longitudinally generally requires a wearable device, limiting its availability. We present PHRM, a deep learning system for passive…
Traditionally, abnormal heart sound classification is framed as a three-stage process. The first stage involves segmenting the phonocardiogram to detect fundamental heart sounds; after which features are extracted and classification is…
Wearable devices are increasingly being used for monitoring health signals and for fitness purposes with typical uses being calorie tracker, workout assistant, and step counter. Even though these wearables can measure many health signals…
Heart rate is an important vital sign used in the diagnosis of many medical conditions. Conventionally, heart rate is measured using a medical device such as pulse oxymeter. Physiological parameters such as heart rate bear a correlation to…
Recent advances in wearable technology have enabled the continuous monitoring of vital physiological signals, essential for predictive modeling and early detection of extreme physiological events. Among these physiological signals, heart…
Approximately 10\% of newborns require assistance to initiate breathing at birth, and around 5\% need ventilation support. Fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring plays a crucial role in assessing fetal well-being during prenatal care, enabling…
We propose an end-to-end framework to measure people's vital signs including Heart Rate (HR), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) and Blood Pressure (BP) based on the rPPG methodology from the video of a user's face…
Blind source separation (BSS) techniques have revealed to be promising approaches for, among other, biomedical signal processing applications. Specifically, for the noninvasive extraction of fetal cardiac signals from maternal abdominal…
Remote detection of the cardiac pulse has a number of applications in sports and medicine, and can be used to determine the physiological state of the subject. Previous approaches to estimate Heart Rate from video require the subject to…
Continuous monitoring of fetal and maternal vital signs, particularly during labor, can be critical for the child and mother's health. We present a novel wearable electronic system that measures, in real-time, maternal heart rate using…
Biometric authentication using physiological signals offers a promising path toward secure and user-friendly access control in wearable devices. While electrocardiogram (ECG) signals have shown high discriminability, their intrusive sensing…
The measurement of the pulse wave has proven to be a vital tool in medical diagnosis. Whereby most pulse wave measurements are carried out at extremities, this work proposes a system for measuring the pulse wave and the Pulse Arrival Time…
Heart-rate estimation is a fundamental feature of modern wearable devices. In this paper we propose a machine intelligent approach for heart-rate estimation from electrocardiogram (ECG) data collected using wearable devices. The novelty of…
Approximately 10% of newborns require assistance to initiate breathing at birth, and around 5% need ventilation support. Fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring plays a crucial role in assessing fetal well-being during prenatal care, enabling the…
Step-counting has been widely implemented in wrist-worn devices and is accepted by end users as a quantitative indicator of everyday exercise. However, existing counting approach (mostly on wrist-worn setup) lacks robustness and thus…
Chest X-ray is a commonly used tool during triage, diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases. In resource-constricted settings, optimizing this resource can lead to valuable cost savings for the health care system and the patients as…
This study investigates the potential of deep learning methods to identify individuals with suspected COVID-19 infection using remotely collected heart-rate data. The study utilises data from the ongoing EU IMI RADAR-CNS research project…
Digital stethoscopes in combination with telehealth allow chest sounds to be easily collected and transmitted for remote monitoring and diagnosis. Chest sounds contain important information about a newborn's cardio-respiratory health.…
