Hypertension is a potentially unsafe health ailment, which can be indicated directly from the blood pressure (BP). Hypertension always leads to other health complications. Continuous monitoring of BP is very important; however, cuff-based BP measurem...
Exposure to high and/or repetitive force exertions can lead to musculoskeletal injuries. However, measuring worker force exertion levels is challenging, and existing techniques can be intrusive, interfere with human-machine interface, and/or limited ...

Photoplethysmography (PPG) has been widely used in noninvasive blood volume and blood flow detection since its first appearance. However, its noninvasiveness also makes the PPG signals vulnerable to noise interference and thus exhibits nonlinear and ...
This study investigates the feasibility of estimation of blood pressure (BP) using a single earlobe photoplethysmography (Ear PPG) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). We have designed a system that carries out Ear PPG for estimation of BP. In...

OBJECTIVE: We describe a novel machine-learning based method to estimate total Hemoglobin (Hb) using photoplethysmograms (PPGs) acquired non-invasively.
UNLABELLED: The effect of untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) on cerebral haemodynamics and CA impairment is an active field of research interest. A breath-hold challenge is usually used in clinical and research settings to simulate cardiovascul...
In this paper, a continuous non-occluding blood pressure (BP) prediction method is proposed using multiple photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals. In the new method, BP is predicted by a committee machine or ensemble learning framework comprising multiple ...
