Multiperson remote heartrate measurement from human faces  a CNN based approach The conventional heart rate measurement techniques using electrocardiogram, wrist belts and so on, are attached with some disadvantages like discomfort, irritation of the skin and even more. From this starting point various video based heart rate measurement techniques were developed in the last years. All of these techniques use video data of the human faces to extract information to estimate the heart rate of the person in front of the camera. Most of them work with the detection of minimal changes in the color spectrum of the recorded video data. With these extracted information and multiple concluding steps, they are able to estimate the heart rate of the person sitting in front of the camera. All of these approaches have some big disadvantages, they are only able to measure the heart rate of one person  and in a small number of cases up to three persons. So the main objective of this work is to adapt and enhance existing research approaches of processing visual biological signals. The focus is set on the design and deployment of a new system, which is able to process visual data as well as detect and localize human faces by using artificial neural networks and calculate each individuals heart rate from the processed dataxe2x80x99s information. For the first time in this research area, different scenarios with more than three observed participants are being analyzed to calculate the heart rate for each of them separately. It will be shown that by using the applied technical architecture and technologies, it is possible to deploy a comparable and qualitatively competitive system. In addition, the implemented system proves the feasibility of processing various facesxe2x80x99 signals and calculating the respective heart rates simultaneously within an acceptable range of tolerance.

The Design of CNN Architectures for Optimal Six Basic Emotion Classification Using Multiple Physiological Signals. This study aimed to design an optimal emotion recognition method using multiple physiological signal parameters acquired by biosignal sensors for improving the accuracy of classifying individual emotional responses. Multiple physiological signals such as respiration (RSP) and heart rate variability (HRV) were acquired in an experiment from 53 participants when six basic emotion states were induced. Two RSP parameters were acquired from a chestband respiration sensor, and five HRV parameters were acquired from a fingerclip blood volume pulse (BVP) sensor. A newly designed deeplearning model based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) was adopted for detecting the identification accuracy of individual emotions. Additionally, the signal combination of the acquired parameters was proposed to obtain high classification accuracy. Furthermore, a dominant factor influencing the accuracy was found by comparing the relativeness of the parameters, providing a basis for supporting the results of emotion classification. The users of this proposed model will soon be able to improve the emotion recognition model further based on CNN using multimodal physiological signals and their sensors.
