Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) estimates the blood volume pulse (BVP) signal from facial videos, enabling contact-free health monitoring. Conventional clip-wise approaches, which use video clips as input, require capturing over one hundred frames before inference, thus introducing several seconds of delay and hindering real-time use.
Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) enables contactless pulse estimation from facial videos, serving as a vital tool for health monitoring. However, current deep learning methods often struggle under complex disturbances, particularly varying illumination, facial expressions, and unconstrained head movements.
arXiv:2606. 07365v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Photoplethysmography (PPG), a non-invasive measure of changes in blood volume, is widely used in both wearable devices and clinical settings.
The paper introduces DPNet, a Mamba-based deep learning framework for denoising photoplethysmography (PPG) signals while preserving physiological information. It incorporates a scale‑invariant signal‑to‑distortion ratio loss and an auxiliary heart‑rate predictor to enhance waveform fidelity and maintain heart‑rate accuracy. Experiments on the BIDMC dataset show that DPNet outperforms conventional filtering and existing neural models in robustness against synthetic noise and real‑world motion artifacts, making it suitable for wearable healthcare systems.

Wrist-worn photoplethysmography (PPG) enables continuous monitoring of cardiopulmonary physiology, but reliable heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) estimation in free-living conditions remains challenging due to non-stationary motion artifacts that spectrally overlap with physiological dynamics. Existing signal-processing methods degrade under strong motion, while unconstrained deep learning approaches often lack physiological interpretability and identifiable structure.

The paper introduces Heartian, a physiology‑aware framework that augments Gaussian head avatars with cardiac‑cycle‑dependent albedo modulation, enabling the encoding of remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals. By supervising with synchronized contact PPG, the method models the cardiac waveform as a sum of two Gaussians and learns per‑frame spatial residuals via a lightweight MLP. Experiments on 152 stationary recordings from UBFC‑rPPG, PURE, and MMPD show heart‑rate estimation errors as low as 0.29 bpm MAE and 0.38 % MAPE, while preserving reconstruction quality with negligible PSNR loss.
