As a result of the different approaches for feature selection, the proposed models show that all the domains analysed are important in the pressure estimation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The analysis of the results of the models on systolic pressure shows at the end of the optimisation of the hyperparameters that the model that shows the best performance is the one based on the Gaussian Process Regression algorithm. This algorithm also appears to be the best for the estimation of diastolic pressure, the results of which are in agreement with all the proposed standards. For these two models, a study was carried out on their interpretability through the analysis of the importance of the features and it emerged that the most important features for both models are those related to Pulse Transit Time, a fundamental feature for the implementation of models based on PPG signal that has a strong clinical relevance. This analysis of the most relevant features and their clinical relevance shows that although the GPR is a poorly interpretable and explicable model, the proposed models exhibit good reliability. The analysis of the borderline cases showed that for both the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure models, the reason for the error is to be found more in the relevant weight of less important features than in the training model and in the low score of some features with greater weight. This highlights both the hierarchy of features in our models but also, albeit with their weight, that all features are relevant in the prediction of pressure values. In conclusion, this thesis work proposes an approach that is new in the literature, very generalisable and valid for estimating systolic and diastolic pressure. The most relevant features are those relating to the non-invasiveness of the methodology and the possibility of remote recording for patients. The proposed models can certainly be optimised; in fact, in the future, tests could be carried out on new datasets with a higher numerosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Objective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Development of a methodology, with the characteristics of non invasiveness, continuity and remote usability for monitoring systolic and diastolic pressure from the PPG signal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center h5\">Research methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find public Dataset (PPG signal)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Processing: Sampling, Filtering (Butterworth, continuous wavelet transform), peak detection, HRV feature extraction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dataset Concatenation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training of five classification algorithms (Multiple Linear Regression, Random Forest, Support Vector Regression, Least- Square Boosting, Gaussian Process Regression) in Matlab<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Analysis of feature importance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center h5\">Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The model that shows the best performance is the one based on the Gaussian Process Regression algorithm.
