Your heart beats around 100,000 times every day. Heart rate is a key marker of cardiovascular activity and an important vital sign. But your pulse is not as steady as a precision clock – nor would you ...

Healthy hearts are adaptable, and heartbeats exhibit complex variation as they adjust to tiny changes in the body and environment. Researchers have applied a new way to measure the complexity of pulse ...

Heart rate is simply how fast your heart is beating. Sometimes called a pulse rate, it’s normally presented in beats per minute. You can count your own heart rate by feeling for your pulse inside your ...

Heart rate variability (HRV) is the variation in the time between two consecutive heartbeats over a specific period. Doctors may use HRV as an indicator for certain aspects of a person’s health, ...

Researchers at Bielefeld University have analyzed how reliably AI methods can detect pulse rates from simple video recordings. The technique, known ...
