About this book

This book describes the latest advances in pulse signal analysis and their applications in classification and diagnosis. First, it provides a comprehensive introduction to useful techniques for pulse signal acquisition based on different kinds of pulse sensors together with the optimized acquisition scheme. It then presents a number of preprocessing and feature extraction methods, as well as case studies of the classification methods used. Lastly it discusses some promising directions for the future study and clinical applications of pulse signal analysis. The book is a valuable resource for researchers, professionals and postgraduate students working in the field of pulse diagnosis, signal processing, pattern recognition and biometrics. It is also useful for those involved in interdisciplinary research.

About the authors

​David Zhang graduated in Computer Science from Peking University. He received his MSc and PhD degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from the Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 1982 and 1985 respectively. From 1986 to 1988 he was a postdoctoral fellow at Tsinghua University and then an associate professor at the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing. In 1994 he received his second PhD degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Currently, he is a chair professor at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, where he is the founding director of the Biometrics Research Centre (UGC/CRC), which has been supported by the Hong Kong SAR Government since 1998. He also serves as visiting chair professor at Tsinghua University and HIT, and adjunct professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Peking University, National University of Defense Technology, and University of Waterloo. He has published more than 15 books and 400 international journal papers. He was listed as a highly cited researcher in engineering by Thomson Reuters in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Prof. Zhang is a Croucher senior research fellow, distinguished speaker of the IEEE computer society, and a fellow of both the IEEE and the IAPR.

Wangmeng Zuo is currently a professor at the School of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China. His research interests include discriminative learning, deep learning, image modeling and low-level vision, and biometrics. Dr. Zuo has published more than 50 papers in leading academic journals and at top-tier conferences. Dr. Zuo is an associate editor of the IET Biometrics, guest editor of Neurocomputing, Pattern Recognition, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, and IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems. He has co-authored a book on medical biometrics and another book on biometrics. He is a senior member of IEEE.
