Speckle Vibrometry for Instantaneous Heart Rate Monitoring [PDF]
Instantaneous heart rate (IHR) has been investigated for sleep applications, such as sleep apnea detection and sleep staging. To ensure the comfort of the patient during sleep, it is desirable for IHR to be measured in a contact-free fashion.

Forcecardiography: A Novel Technique to Measure Heart Mechanical Vibrations onto the Chest Wall [PDF]
This paper presents forcecardiography (FCG), a novel technique to measure local, cardiac-induced vibrations onto the chest wall. Since the 19th century, several techniques have been proposed to detect the mechanical vibrations caused by cardiovascular ...

A Powerful Paradigm for Cardiovascular Risk Stratification Using Multiclass, Multi-Label, and Ensemble-Based Machine Learning Paradigms: A Narrative Review [PDF]
Background and Motivation: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) causes the highest mortality globally. With escalating healthcare costs, early non-invasive CVD risk assessment is vital. Conventional methods have shown poor performance compared to more recent and

Comparison of Different Methods for Estimating Cardiac Timings: A Comprehensive Multimodal Echocardiography Investigation [PDF]
Cardiac time intervals are important hemodynamic indices and provide information about left ventricular performance. Phonocardiography (PCG), impedance cardiography (ICG), and recently, seismocardiography (SCG) have been unobtrusive methods of choice for

A novel seismocardiogram mathematical model for simplified adjustment of adaptive filter [PDF]
Nonclinical measurements of a seismocardiogram (SCG) can diagnose cardiovascular disease (CVD) at an early stage, when a critical condition has not been reached, and prevents unplanned hospitalization. However, researchers are restricted when it comes to

Comprehensive Analysis of Cardiogenic Vibrations for Automated Detection of Atrial Fibrillation Using Smartphone Mechanocardiograms [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common sustained heart arrhythmia and is characterized by irregular and excessively frequent ventricular contractions. Early diagnosis of AFib is a key step in the prevention of stroke and heart failure.
