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.
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.

arXiv:2606. 30156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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.

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.
