Real-Time Approaches for Heart Rate Monitoring using Imaging Photoplethysmography

Jean-Marc Vesin, Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi, Sibylle Fallet, Fabian Braun, Virginie Moser

Imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) has gained a lot of popularity as a contactless heart rate (HR) monitoring technique. However, most of the existing approaches to estimate HR are based on block-wise processing schemes, which are not optimal for real-tim ...

Fractal Modelling And Analysis Of Flow-Field Images

Michaël Unser, Ricard Delgado Gonzalo, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

We introduce stochastic models for flow fields with parameters that dictate the scale-dependent (self-similar) character of the field and control the balance between its rotational vs compressive behaviour. The development of our models is motivated by the ...
