On-Device Inference versus Wireless Streaming: Energy-Efficient Multi-Modal Deep Learning for Wearable Cardiovascular Patches

arXiv:2510. 18668v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Wearable cardiovascular sensor patches promise continuous, unobtrusive monitoring, but their tight energy, memory, and compute budgets make it unclear whether physiological signals should be analyzed on the device or streamed to the cloud for processing.

Single-Beat Cuffless Blood Pressure Estimation Using Ear-PPG and ECG with a Lightweight Hybrid Learning Framework

arXiv:2607. 27076v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continuous cuffless blood pressure (BP) monitoring remains challenging due to motion artifacts, physiological variability, and the limited robustness of conventional pulse transit time (PTT) models under dynamic conditions.

Reassessing the Feasibility of PPG-Based Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Level Estimation

Non-invasive blood glucose level (BGL) estimation from photoplethysmography (PPG) holds great promise for wearable health monitoring, but results across studies are hard to compare due to inconsistent datasets, data leakage, and non-standardized evaluation metrics. We present the first reproducible, extensible evaluation pipeline and use it to reassess five representative PPG-based BGL methods on published datasets under three increasingly strict data-split protocols: random window-level, participant-aware, and leave-some-participants-out (LSPO).

Physically-Constrained Harmonic Separation for Robust Heart and Respiratory Rate Estimation from Wrist Photoplethysmography

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.

Good Practice Guide for quantifying uncertainties for machine learning models applied to photoplethysmography signals

arXiv:2607. 19999v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This Good Practice Guide presents work done in the QUMPHY project (Uncertainty quantification for machine learning models applied to photoplethysmography signals) that considered both machine learning and uncertainty quantification for problems which used photoplethysmography (PPG) signals from wearable devices as input.
