Facial Kinship Verification from remote photoplethysmography
Facial Kinship Verification (FKV) aims at automatically determining whether two subjects have a kinship relation based on human faces. It has potential applications in finding missing children and social media analysis. Traditional FKV faces challenges as it is vulnerable to spoof attacks and raises privacy issues.

Deep Learning Methods for Remote Heart Rate Measurement: A Review and Future Research Agenda
Heart rate (HR) is one of the essential vital signs used to indicate the physiological health of the human body. While traditional HR monitors usually require contact with skin, remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) enables contactless HR monitoring by ...

Motion limitations of non-contact photoplethysmography due to the optical and topological properties of skin [PDF]
Non-contact photoplethysmography (PPG) provides multiple benefits over in-contact methods, but is not as tolerant to motion due to the lack of mechanical coupling between the subject and sensor.

Design and Development of a Modular, Multichannel Photoplethysmography System [PDF]
In this paper, we present the design, development, and validation of a `modular photoplethysmography (PPG) system called ZenPPG. This portable, dual-channel system has the capability to produce ``raw'' PPG signals at two different wavelengths using ...

Full-Body Cardiovascular Sensing with Remote Photoplethysmography
Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) allows for noncontact monitoring of blood volume changes from a camera by detecting minor fluctuations in reflected light. Prior applications of rPPG focused on face videos. In this paper we explored the feasibility of rPPG from non-face body regions such as the arms, legs, and hands. We collected a new dataset titled

A machine vision approach to human activity recognition using photoplethysmograph sensor data [PDF]
Human activity recognition (HAR) is an active area of research concerned with the classification of human motion. Cameras are the gold standard used in this area, but they are proven to have scalability and privacy issues.

Perfusion assessment via local remote photoplethysmography (rPPG)
This paper presents an approach to assess the perfusion of visible human tissue from RGB video files. We propose metrics derived from remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals to detect whether a tissue is adequately supplied with blood. The perfusion analysis is done in three different scales, offering a flexible approach for different applications ...

Video pulse rate variability analysis in stationary and motion conditions [PDF]
Background: In the last few years, some studies have measured heart rate (HR) or heart rate variability (HRV) parameters using a video camera. This technique focuses on the measurement of the small changes in skin colour caused by blood perfusion.
