TL;DR

MIT-licensed, fully reproducible analysis code (Zenodo v0.2.0) for a study comparing PPG fiducial points and testing how much heart rate adds when predicting pulse timing, run on 32 SensSmartTech participants with participant-grouped validation. The paper itself is still in revision.

  • Form factor: carotid + brachial PPG (SensSmartTech); finger/multi-site PPG pilot (PTT-PPG)

Abstract

Version 0.2.0 of the analysis software accompanying “PPG fiducial choice and the incremental value of heart rate for pulse timing prediction”. Includes corrected primary analyses, participant-grouped validation, filter and signed-delay sensitivities, native CSV comparisons, configurations, reproduction instructions and historical pilot reproduction. A fresh Python 3.12 environment reproduced the raw-data workflow; 38 numerical tables, including all 17 supplementary data tables, matched the reviewed outputs. The historical pilot separately matched archived tables and criteria exactly. Third-party raw recordings and full per-beat tables are excluded; users obtain source data under their respective terms. Historical QTDB results were not rerun. See README, VALIDATION_STATUS and PACKAGE_VERIFICATION for scope and limitations.
