Semi-rPPG: Semi-Supervised Remote Physiological Measurement with Curriculum Pseudo-Labeling

Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) is a promising technique to monitor physiological signals such as heart rate from facial videos. However, the labeled facial videos in this research are challenging to collect. Current rPPG research is mainly based on several small public datasets collected in simple environments, which limits the generalization and scale of the AI models. Semi-supervised methods that leverage a small amount of labeled data and abundant unlabeled data can fill this gap for rPPG learning. In this study, a novel semi-supervised learning method named Semi-rPPG that combines curriculum pseudo-labeling and consistency regularization is proposed to extract intrinsic physiological features from unlabelled data without impairing the model from noises. Specifically, a curriculum pseudo-labeling strategy with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) criteria is proposed to annotate the unlabelled data while adaptively filtering out the low-quality unlabelled data. Besides, a novel consistency regularization term for quasi-periodic signals is proposed through weak and strong augmented clips. To benefit the research on semi-supervised rPPG measurement, we establish a novel semi-supervised benchmark for rPPG learning through intra-dataset and cross-dataset evaluation on four public datasets. The proposed Semi-rPPG method achieves the best results compared with three classical semi-supervised methods under different protocols. Ablation studies are conducted to prove the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Parameter inference and nonequilibrium identification for Markovian systems based on coarse-grained observations

Most experiments can only detect a set of coarse-grained clusters of a molecular system, while the internal microstates are often inaccessible. Here, based on an infinitely long coarse-grained trajectory, we obtain a set of sufficient statistics which extracts all statistic information of coarse-grained observations. Based on these sufficient statistics, we set up a theoretical framework of parameter inference and nonequilibrium identification for a general Markovian system with an arbitrary number of microstates and arbitrary coarse-grained partitioning. Our framework can identify whether the sufficient statistics are enough for empirical estimation of all unknown parameters and we can also provide a quantitative criterion that reveals nonequilibrium. Our nonequilibrium criterion generalizes the one obtained [J. Chem. Phys. 132:041102 (2010)] for a three-state system with two coarse-grained clusters, and is capable of detecting a larger nonequilibrium region compared to the classical criterion based on autocorrelation functions.

SFDA-rPPG: Source-Free Domain Adaptive Remote Physiological Measurement with Spatio-Temporal Consistency

Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) is a non-contact method that uses facial video to predict changes in blood volume, enabling physiological metrics measurement. Traditional rPPG models often struggle with poor generalization capacity in unseen domains. Current solutions to this problem is to improve its generalization in the target domain through Domain Generalization (DG) or Domain Adaptation (DA). However, both traditional methods require access to both source domain data and target domain data, which cannot be implemented in scenarios with limited access to source data, and another issue is the privacy of accessing source domain data. In this paper, we propose the first Source-free Domain Adaptation benchmark for rPPG measurement (SFDA-rPPG), which overcomes these limitations by enabling effective domain adaptation without access to source domain data. Our framework incorporates a Three-Branch Spatio-Temporal Consistency Network (TSTC-Net) to enhance feature consistency across domains. Furthermore, we propose a new rPPG distribution alignment loss based on the Frequency-domain Wasserstein Distance (FWD), which leverages optimal transport to align power spectrum distributions across domains effectively and further enforces the alignment of the three branches. Extensive cross-domain experiments and ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method in source-free domain adaptation settings. Our findings highlight the significant contribution of the proposed FWD loss for distributional alignment, providing a valuable reference for future research and applications.

Large deviations for the empirical measure and empirical flow of Markov renewal processes with a countable state space

Here we propose the Donsker-Varadhan-type compactness conditions and prove the joint large deviation principle for the empirical measure and empirical flow of Markov renewal processes (semi-Markov processes) with a countable state space, generalizing the relevant results for continuous-time Markov chains with a countable state space obtained in [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Probab. Statist. 51, 867-900 (2015)] and [Stoch. Proc. Appl. 125, 2786-2819 (2015)], as well as the relevant results for Markov renewal processes with a finite state space obtained in [Adv. Appl. Probab. 48, 648-671 (2016)]. In particular, our results hold when the flow space is endowed with either the bounded weak* topology or the strong $L^1$ topology. Even for continuous-time Markov chains, our compactness conditions are weaker than the ones proposed in previous papers. Furthermore, under some stronger conditions, we obtain the explicit expression of the marginal rate function of the empirical flow.

Large deviations and fluctuation theorems for cycle currents defined in the loop-erased and spanning tree manners: a comparative study

The cycle current is a crucial quantity in stochastic thermodynamics. The absolute and net cycle currents of a Markovian system can be defined in the loop-erased (LE) or spanning tree (ST) manner. Here we make a comparative study between the large deviations and fluctuation theorems for LE and ST currents, i.e. cycle currents defined in the LE and ST manners. First, we derive the exact joint distribution and large deviation rate function for the LE currents of a system with a cyclic topology and also obtain the exact rate function for the ST currents of a general system. The relationship between the rate functions for LE and ST currents is clarified and the analytical results are applied to examine the fluctuations in the product rate of a three-step reversible enzyme reaction. Furthermore, we examine various types of fluctuation theorems satisfied by LE and ST currents and clarify their ranges of applicability. We show that both the absolute and net LE currents satisfy the strong form of all types of fluctuation theorems. In contrast, the absolute ST currents do not satisfy fluctuation theorems, while the net ST currents only satisfy the weak form of fluctuation theorems under the periodic boundary condition.
