  • Publication number: 20210085255
    Abstract: Physiological signals produced at a wearable device are compressed and mapped to detect a health condition of a user of the wearable device. Physiological signal data indicating a physical quality of the user of the wearable device is produced based on noisy data recorded using sensors of the wearable device. The physiological signal data is compressed at the wearable device using a dictionary defined at a server device. The server device receives and decompresses the compressed physiological signal data to produce denoised physiological signal data indicating the physical quality of the user of the wearable device. A change in a physiological state of the user of the wearable device is determined using the denoised physiological signal data and historical physiological data of the user of the wearable device. The health condition is detected based on the change in the physiological state of the user of the wearable device.
