摘要
An image of a human, animal or machine subject, is analysed to detect regions which include strong periodic intensity variations, such as a photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal in a human or animal, or some periodic vibration in a machine. The image is divided into plural regions of fixed order is fitted to a representative intensity signal for that region. The poles of the fitted autoregressive model are thresholded by magnitude to select only the pole or poles with a magnitude greater than the threshold. The pole magnitude therefore acts as a signal quality index. The dominant pole is representative of the strongest periodic information and the frequency of that spectral component can be derived from the phase angle of the pole. The image may be redisplayed with image attributes, e.g. color-coding, according to the pole magnitude in each region of interest and/or the dominant pole phase angle in each region of interest. In the case of a PPG image signal this can give maps of heart rate and breathing rate.
