摘要：

Heart rate monitoring using wrist-type photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals during subjects' intensive exercise is a difficult problem, since the signals are contaminated by extremely strong motion artifacts caused by subjects' hand movements. So far few works have studied this problem. In this work, a general framework, termed TROIKA, is proposed, which consists of signal decomposiTion for denoising, sparse signal RecOnstructIon for high-resolution spectrum estimation, and spectral peaK trAcking with verification. The TROIKA framework has high estimation accuracy and is robust to strong motion artifacts. Many variants can be straightforwardly derived from this framework. Experimental results on datasets recorded from 12 subjects during fast running at the peak speed of 15 km/hour showed that the average absolute error of heart rate estimation was 2.34 beat per minute (BPM), and the Pearson correlation between the estimates and the ground-truth of heart rate was 0.992. This framework is of great values to wearable devices such as smart-watches which use PPG signals to monitor heart rate for fitness.
