Histogram Layers for Neural “Engineered” Features

July 23, 2025

Abstract: In the computer vision literature, many effective histogram-based features have been developed. These engineered features include local binary patterns and edge histogram descriptors among others and they have been shown to be informative features for a variety of computer vision tasks. In this paper, we explore whether these features can be learned through histogram […]

Non-Invasive Heart Rate Estimation From Ballistocardiograms Using Bidirectional LSTM Regression

April 28, 2021

Abstract: Non-invasive heart rate estimation is of great importance in daily monitoring of cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, a bidirectional long short term memory (bi-LSTM) regression network is developed for non-invasive heart rate estimation from the ballistocardiograms (BCG) signals. The proposed deep regression model provides an effective solution to the existing challenges in BCG heart […]
