摘要：Aiming at the problem that the traditional photoplethysmography (PPG) biometric recognition based on sparse representation is not robust to noise and intraclass variations when the sample size is small, we propose a PPG biometric recognition method based on multifeature deep cascaded sparse representation (MFDCSR). The method consists of multifeature signal coding and deep cascaded coding. The function of multifeature signal coding is to extract the shape, wavelet, and principal component analysis features of the PPG signal and to perform sparse representation. Deep cascaded coding is multilayer feature coding. Each layer combines multifeature signal coding with the result of the previous layer as input, and the output of each layer is the input of the next layer. The function of deep cascade coding is to learn the features of the PPG signal, layer by layer, and to output the category distribution vector of the PPG signal in the last layer. Experiments demonstrate that MFDCSR has better recognition performance than current methods for PPG biometric recognition.
