Fusion-Id: A Photoplethysmography and Motion Sensor Fusion Biometric Authenticator With Few-Shot on-Boarding
The abundance of wrist-worn heart rate measuring devices enables long term cardiovascular monitoring through photoplethysmography (PPG). Such signals contain unique identifiable information that can help in biometric authentication. In this work, we propose Fusion-ID, which use wrist-worn PPG sensors fused with motion sensor data as a way to do bio authentication on wrist worn devices. We conducted a user study using a PPG and motion sensor enabled wrist-worn device and collected data from 247 users. We then propose a novel sensor fusion deep Siamese network architecture for feature embedding…
This paper was accepted at the Learning from Time Series for Health workshop at NeurIPS 2025. Sensor data streams provide valuable information around activities and context for downstream applications, though integrating complementary information can be challenging. We show that large language models (LLMs) can be used for late fusion for…
Continuous cardiovascular monitoring can play a key role in precision health. However, some fundamental cardiac biomarkers of interest, including stroke volume and cardiac output, require invasive measurements, e.g., arterial pressure waveforms (APW). As a non-invasive alternative, photoplethysmography (PPG) measurements are routinely collected in hospital settings. Unfortunately, the prediction of key…
New research aims to increase autonomy for individuals with such motor impairments by introducing a head-worn device that will help them control a mobile manipulator. Teleoperated mobile manipulators can aid individuals in completing daily activities, but many existing technologies like hand-operated joysticks or web interfaces require a user to have…
