Abstract

Heart rate (HR) is an important physiological signal that reflects the physical and emotional status of a person. Traditional HR measurements usually rely on contact monitors, which may cause inconvenience and discomfort. Recently, some methods have been proposed for remote HR estimation from face videos; however, most of them focus on well-controlled scenarios, their generalization ability into less-constrained scenarios (e.g., with head movement, and bad illumination) are not known. At the same time, lacking large-scale HR databases has limited the use of deep models for remote HR estimation. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end RhythmNet for remote HR estimation from the face. In RyhthmNet, we use a spatial-temporal representation encoding the HR signals from multiple ROI volumes as its input. Then the spatial-temporal representations are fed into a convolutional network for HR estimation. We also take into account the relationship of adjacent HR measurements from a video sequence via Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) and achieves efficient HR measurement. In addition, we build a large-scale multi-modal HR database (named as VIPL-HRVIPL-HR is available at: ), which contains 2,378 visible light videos (VIS) and 752 near-infrared (NIR) videos of 107 subjects. Our VIPL-HR database contains various variations such as head movements, illumination variations, and acquisition device changes, replicating a less-constrained scenario for HR estimation. The proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on both the public-domain and our VIPL-HR databases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
