New framework reconstructs low-quality PPG signals for accurate SpO2 estimation

Researchers have developed a novel framework for reconstructing low-quality dual-wavelength photoplethysmography (PPG) signals, crucial for continuous oxygen saturation (SpO2) estimation in wearable health monitoring. This method employs a SpO2 predictor to guide a stage-wise reconstruction process, combining time-domain waveform loss with frequency-domain loss derived from the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). By incorporating the SpO2 predictor as a constraint, the reconstruction prioritizes preserving SpO2-relevant information over merely minimizing waveform error. Experiments on public and private datasets demonstrated superior performance, achieving the lowest subject-level mean absolute error (MAE) of 2.882% and 2.359% respectively. AI
