In microcirculation, pressure pulse represents flow, volume pulse wave represents pressure of blood flow, so that the photoelectric volume pulse wave PPG signal and blood pressure have strong correlation, and along with changes of physical conditions and age, waveforms of the photoelectric volume pulse wave PPG signal in a time domain and harmonic power spectrums in a frequency domain have obvious differences, so that pressure research through capacitance pulse wave has important significance, but precious PPG waveform information is lost in the current related research of predicting the blood pressure based on PPG and ECG signals, the blood pressure of a patient in calm state is required to be collected in advance before prediction, and the blood pressure prediction can be realized through parameter pre-fitting of the blood pressure of a small human body in calm state, so that the method has great inconvenience. According to the non-invasive blood pressure extraction method provided by the invention, a single-period PPG signal obtained by combining a plurality of period PPG signals is used as a research object, frequency decomposition is carried out on the single-period PPG signal through fast Fourier transform extracted by a time axis, the problem of researching the relation between different PPG signals and blood pressure is converted into the relation between the frequency spectrum amplitude and the phase of the PPG signal and the blood pressure, the time interval between the peak value of the ECG signal and the point with the maximum gradient of the rising edge of the PPG signal is defined as pulse wave arrival time PAT, the frequency spectrum amplitude and the phase of waveforms of the pulse wave arrival time PAT and the PPG signal can completely represent the physical characteristics of a tested person, the pulse wave arrival time PAT and the frequency spectrum amplitude and the phase of the PPG signal are used as the input of a Stacking model to train the Stacking model, and then the trained Stacking model is used for carrying out blood pressure prediction, so that accurate judgment on the blood pressure can be realized, and the technical problems of larger error and low accuracy of the existing non-invasive blood pressure extraction method are solved.

Example 2
Referring to fig. 2, another embodiment of a method for non-invasive blood pressure extraction is provided in the present invention, comprising:
step 201, synchronously collecting a PPG signal and an ECG signal of a tested person through a PPG signal collecting device and an ECG signal collecting device on the intelligent bracelet.
Step 201 in this embodiment corresponds to step 101 in embodiment 1, and will not be described here again.
Step 202, inputting the PPG signal into an FIR filter for filtering, and filtering out the high-frequency component of the dicrotic peak of the PPG signal.
Step 203, calculating the number of periods of the PPG signal, and combining the PPG signals of the preset number of periods.
And 204, performing fast Fourier transform on the PPG signals after the period combination to obtain spectrum amplitude information and phase information of the PPG signals.
The discrete Fourier transform is performed on the PPG signal to find that the frequency of the PPG signal is mainly distributed within 5Hz, so that for a fixed-length photoelectric volume signal, the embodiment of the invention designs an FIR filter with the band-pass frequency of 2Hz, the band-stop frequency of 4Hz and the stop band attenuation of 80dB, and high-frequency parts such as a dicrotic peak in the PPG signal are filtered, so that the influence of the dicrotic peak on the calculation of the cycle number in the PPG signal with a certain time can be eliminated, and the calculation of the PPG signal cycle number is realized. However, the FIR filter can generate a time delay effect, and meanwhile, a direct current component of 3s is added to the PPG signal to offset the time delay of the FIR filter, so that the influence of the time delay on the calculation of the number of PPG signal periods at a given time is eliminated.
The baseline drift removal processing is shown in fig. 4, and the baseline of the PPG signal is aligned in a linear mapping mode, so that signal distortion caused by nonlinear mapping is avoided, and signal information is better protected. Since the original data is affected by the hardware device and thus the signal data has irregular oscillation, baseline drift removal processing is required to be performed on the PPG signal through a sliding window according to the number of periods, the average period length T is calculated based on the calculation result of the number of periods, and the sliding window size is set to 0.6T. The maximum value and the minimum value of the sequence in each window are found through sliding window movement, the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value in a specific time is calculated to be D, if the detected maximum value is larger than 3/4*D and the minimum value is smaller than 1/3*D, the detected maximum value and the detected minimum value can be preliminarily identified as the maximum value and the minimum value of the periodic sequence, and then the second screening is carried out to carry out final judgment, and the removed mispositioning condition is shown in fig. 3, so that the condition is often caused by that the detected maximum values and the detected minimum values of two adjacent sliding windows are smaller in the time axis direction, and in fact, the two adjacent maximum points are all the values near the same wave crest or wave trough, but not adjacent wave crests. Therefore, the invention calculates the time difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the detected adjacent maximum values in pairs, if the time difference is smaller than 0.6T, the time difference is considered as the error positioning, if the time difference is the error positioning of the maximum value, the time difference is larger between the maximum value and the minimum value, and if the time difference is the minimum value, the time difference is the smaller between the maximum value and the minimum value. After the minimum point coordinates of each period are obtained, the base lines of the PPG signals are aligned in a linear mapping mode, the average coordinates of the trough longitudinal axis coordinates of each period are taken as the longitudinal axis coordinates of the base lines, the difference between the trough longitudinal axes at two ends of the same period is proportioned, the displacement amount of the offset is sequentially used as the point longitudinal axis direction lock on the period, and the baseline removing drift of the PPG signals is removed based on the operation line of sight, as shown in fig. 4.
And in order to avoid the loss of information of the dicrotic peak caused by cycle combination, when the PPG signals are subjected to cycle combination, the distances from the dicrotic peak trough in each cycle to the trough of the adjacent PPG signal cycle are respectively calculated and averaged, then the average value is used as the standard distance from the baseline to the starting point and the end point of a single cycle after the cycle combination, the cycle length of the PPG signals measured in a given time can be unified in a mode of combining interpolation or sampling, and finally the PPG signals subjected to cycle combination are subjected to fast Fourier transformation to obtain the frequency amplitude and the phase information of the PPG signals.
The invention realizes noise filtering of the PPG signals in a period combining mode, and the noise has randomness, and can not only influence the oscillation amplitude of the PPG signals, but also can influence the period width of the PPG signals to a certain extent, so that a simple low-pass filter or a band-pass filter can not well solve the noise problem, and therefore, the invention combines a plurality of PPG signals with the baseline drift removed in a period and averages the noise. Considering that small differences exist between adjacent periods and loss of the information of the dicrotic wave needs to be avoided in an averaging process, the trough position of the dicrotic wave is obtained through positioning in a forward differential mode, the distance between the trough position and the trough position of the adjacent PPG signals is calculated respectively and averaged respectively, the average value is taken as the standard distance between the initial point and the final point of a single period of the baseline after period combination, period normalization is sequentially carried out from the first PPG signal period, under the same sampling frequency, if the distance between the two ends of the trough position of the dicrotic wave in the period is greater than the standard distance, the distance length is compressed to the standard distance in a sampling mode, if the distance between the two ends of the trough position of the dicrotic wave in the period is less than the standard distance, the distance length is amplified to the standard distance in a three-spline difference mode, and denoising processing of the PPG signals can be realized through the step, and the single PPG signals after a plurality of periods are combined are obtained.
The single-period PPG signal obtained by combining a plurality of period PPG signals in about 5s of a tested person is taken as a study object, and the problem of researching the relation between different PPG waveforms and blood pressure is converted into the relation between the spectral amplitude, the phase and the blood pressure of the study PPG signal by carrying out frequency decomposition on the single-period PPG signal through fast Fourier transform of a time axis, as shown in figure 6, the frequency with higher energy is selected as the input for extracting the blood pressure according to the attenuation condition of the single-period PPG signal.
Step 205, calculating pulse wave arrival time PAT according to the PPG signal and the ECG signal, wherein pat=ecg peak -PPG D-max ,ECG peak PPG for a point in time corresponding to the peak of the ECG signal located by a sliding window D-max Is the horizontal axis time point corresponding to the point where the rising edge of the PPG signal has the maximum gradient obtained by the first-order forward difference.
In addition to processing the spectral amplitude and phase of the PPG signal at the input of the diastolic and systolic pressures, a pulse wave arrival time PAT signal is also introduced, which is defined as having the maximum on the ECG peak and PPG rising edgeThe time interval between points of gradient, as shown in fig. 5, the specific formula is defined as: pat=ecg peak -PPG D-max ,ECG peak PPG for a point in time corresponding to the peak of the ECG signal located by a sliding window D-max Is the horizontal axis time point corresponding to the point where the rising edge of the PPG signal has the maximum gradient obtained by the first-order forward difference. ECG peak detection based on PPG maximum detection, the thresholds of maximum and minimum are set to 2/3T and 1/3T respectively according to the ECG characteristics.
Step 206, inputting the spectrum amplitude information and the phase information of the PPG signal and the pulse wave arrival time PAT as training data sets into a Stacking model for training to obtain a trained Stacking model, wherein a first layer of the Stacking model integrates a random forest prediction model, a support vector machine prediction model and a LightGBM prediction model, and a second layer is a multiple linear regression model;
step 207, predicting the systolic pressure and the diastolic pressure of the target blood pressure detecting person through the trained Stacking model.
Based on the idea of integrated learning, the diastolic pressure and the systolic pressure are predicted by fusing a plurality of regression base models through a Stacking model. The Stacking model is divided into two layers, the first layer consists of a random forest prediction model, a support vector machine prediction model and a LightGBM prediction model, 3 machine learning models, as shown in fig. 7, PAT and PPG signal characteristics are learned and predicted, a prediction result is used as input data of the second layer, in order to reduce the risk of over fitting, the second layer carries out second regression on the data obtained by the first layer of the Stacking model through a simple multiple linear regression model, optimal regression parameters are obtained, and finally, the prediction of systolic pressure and diastolic pressure is realized.
