Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Signal Processing
  • Remote Sensing

Background:

  • Imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) offers non-contact physiological monitoring but suffers from low-quality pulse signals due to noise.
  • Accurate measurement of physiological parameters like heart rate (HR) necessitates high-fidelity iPPG signals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an adaptive spatial averaging method for enhancing iPPG signal quality.
  • To improve the accuracy of physiological parameter estimation from iPPG signals.

Main Methods:

  • A facial region of interest (ROI) is divided into seven sub-ROIs (sROIs).
  • Coarse HR is calculated from each sROI, followed by SNR calculation.
  • Adaptive weights are assigned to sROIs based on SNRs to generate a high-quality pulse signal.

Main Results:

  • The proposed method was validated against other techniques using self-collected and public (PURE) databases.
  • Superior pulse signal quality was demonstrated across various resolutions and conditions compared to existing methods.

Conclusions:

  • The adaptive spatial averaging method significantly improves iPPG pulse signal quality.
  • Enhanced signal quality facilitates more accurate measurements of physiological parameters, including HR and HR variability.
