Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of image processing technology, and in particular to an image processing method and device for remote heart rate measurement. Background Art

[0002] Heart rate (HR) is a parameter that reflects the physiological state of the human body and is an important indicator for detecting and preventing various diseases in clinical practice. It is an important basis for assessing the physiological health status of an individual. Traditional instruments such as ECG sensors measure heart rate by directly contacting the patient's skin. Although these contact-based monitoring devices can measure HR continuously and non-invasively, their contact-based characteristics limit their application scenarios. For example, in complex environments such as battlefields or natural disaster sites, contact devices cannot be used for patients with skin burns. In addition, in the case of epidemic prevention and control or the presence of infectious diseases, the use of contact devices poses a risk of cross-infection. Therefore, non-contact HR measurement using facial videos has become a hot topic in recent years. Most of the existing non-contact HR measurement methods are based on remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology. This technology uses changes in light reflected from facial skin to reflect changes in cardiovascular blood volume and pulse. It uses a digital camera to capture these changes, with ambient light as the illumination source. In early studies, researchers mainly extracted rPPG signals through traditional signal processing methods. However, due to the interference of noise, these traditional methods cannot cope with complex and changeable real-world scenarios and it is difficult to obtain reliable measurement results. Therefore, an image processing method and device for remote heart rate measurement are provided to improve the recovery of degraded remote photoplethysmogram signals from low-resolution images, improve the signal extraction quality, and effectively reduce noise interference, thereby significantly improving the accuracy of remote measurement.

[0039] The present invention discloses an image processing method and device for remote heart rate measurement, which is beneficial to recovering degraded remote photoplethysmogram signals from low-resolution images, improving signal extraction quality, and effectively reducing noise interference, thereby significantly improving the accuracy of remote measurement. The following are detailed descriptions.

[0040] Embodiment 1

[0041] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a flow chart of an image processing method disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 2As shown, the image processing method may include the following operations:

[0042] 101. Obtain image information to be processed.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present invention, the image information to be processed includes a plurality of images to be processed.

[0044] 102. Pre-process the image information to be processed to obtain target image processing information.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present invention, the target image processing information includes a plurality of target processed images.

[0046] 103. Perform feature analysis on the target image processing information to obtain target signal processing result information.

[0047] It should be noted that the target feature processing model of the present application is obtained by training based on a multi-channel adversarial learning method. Furthermore, the above-mentioned training based on the multi-channel adversarial learning method is to add a data stream channel in parallel during model training, that is, to add a training subsidiary model from the first feature extraction module → the second feature extraction module → the third feature extraction module → the grid interpolation module → the dimension conversion module → the perception network module → the reshaping module in parallel, and input the two data streams into the feature fusion module at the same time to perform adversarial learning network training on the model, that is, during the model training process, the data processing path from the first feature extraction module → the second feature extraction module → the third feature extraction module → the grid interpolation module → the dimension conversion module → the perception network module → the reshaping module is more sensitive to the local area and subtle changes of the rPPG signal to the image mapping, thereby enhancing the recovery of low-quality signals, enhancing the robustness to changes in image resolution, and suppressing the irrelevant noise interference introduced by the traditional super-resolution method. Furthermore, since the feature fusion module receives two data streams simultaneously during training, the performance of the feature fusion module in low-resolution image experiments can be improved during training, and the quality gap between low-quality rPPG signals can be reduced. In addition, even under normal high-resolution image conditions, the proposed model also improves the performance of the feature fusion module.

[0048] It should be noted that the image processing method of the present application can be used for remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) heart rate monitoring technology. The problem of rPPG signal degradation in low-resolution images under long-distance conditions can be solved by using a target feature processing model trained by a multi-channel adversarial learning method, aiming to restore the degraded rPPG signal in the low-resolution image and minimize the quality gap of the rPPG signal in the low-resolution image.

[0059] Get the signal gain value;

[0060] The signal gain value and the target signal frequency are multiplied to obtain target signal processing result information.

[0061] It should be noted that the fast Fourier transform of the target signal characteristic information is to convert the signal characteristic information from the time domain to the frequency domain through the fast Fourier transform. Further, the frequency domain signal characteristic value information corresponding to the highest peak (largest signal value) in the frequency domain is found in the corresponding frequency domain signal characteristic information, and its frequency is determined as the target signal frequency.
