Description of features extracted from the cardiac cycles detected from the photoplethysmograms.

Feature Description (Units of Measurement)
F1 Cycle duration, measured from consecutive TI points (s)
F2 Pulse amplitude, measured as the amplitude difference between the onset of the pulse and its systolic peak (V)
F3 Amplitude of the maximum slope point, measured from the onset of the pulse (V)
F4 Area of the pulse, measured from consecutive TI points (V)
F5 Area of the systolic phase, measured from the onset of the pulse and the location of the systolic peak (V)
F6 Area of the diastolic phase, measured from the location of the systolic peak and the onset of the next pulse (V)
F7 x-coordinate of the centroid of the pulse (s)
F8 y-coordinate of the centroid of the pulse (V)
F9 x-coordinate of the centroid of the systolic phase of the pulse (s)
F10 y-coordinate of the centroid of the systolic phase of the pulse (V)
F11 x-coordinate of the centroid of the diastolic phase of the pulse (s)
F12 y-coordinate of the centroid of the diastolic phase of the pulse (V)
F13 Pulse width, measured as the difference between F9 and F11 (s)
F14 Rise time, measured as the time between the onset of the pulse and the location of the systolic peak (s)
F15 Decay time, measured as the time between the location of the systolic peak and the onset of the next pulse (s)
F16 Upslope angle, measured as the inverse tangent of the triangle formed by F2 and F14 (rad)
F17 Downslope angle, measured as the inverse tangent of the triangle formed by F2 and F15 (rad)
