Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Pulse rate (PR) is one of the most important markers for assessing a person’s health. With the increasing demand for long-term health monitoring, much attention is being paid to contactless PR estimation using imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG). This non-invasive technique is based on the analysis of subtle changes in skin color. Despite efforts to improve iPPG, the existing algorithms are vulnerable to less-constrained scenarios (i.e., head movements, facial expressions, and environmental conditions). In this article, we propose a novel end-to-end spatio-temporal network, namely X-iPPGNet, for instantaneous PR estimation directly from facial video recordings. Unlike most existing systems, our model learns the iPPG concept from scratch without incorporating any prior knowledge or going through the extraction of blood volume pulse signals. Inspired by the Xception network architecture, color channel decoupling is used to learn additional photoplethysmographic information and to effectively reduce the computational cost and memory requirements. Moreover, X-iPPGNet predicts the pulse rate from a short time window (2 s), which has advantages with high and sharply fluctuating pulse rates. The experimental results revealed high performance under all conditions including head motions, facial expressions, and skin tone. Our approach significantly outperforms all current state-of-the-art methods on three benchmark datasets: MMSE-HR ( MAE = 4.10 ; RMSE = 5.32 ; r = 0.85), UBFC-rPPG ( MAE = 4.99 ; RMSE = 6.26 ; r = 0.67), MAHNOB-HCI ( MAE = 3.17 ; RMSE = 3.93 ; r = 0.88).
