Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We propose a method for heart rate (HR) estimation that is robust to various illumination conditions and subject's head motion. We introduce a scheme for adaptive fusion of RGB and NIR signals by analyzing variations in background illuminations. NIR signals are more reliable in HR estimation than RGB ones in complex illumination scenes, because NIR signals can be captured independent to changes in the background illuminations. By measuring correlations of signals between background and face regions, we adaptively utilize RGB and NIR signals for HR estimation. Furthermore, to achieve robustness against subject's head motion, we introduce motion-robust time-series filtering. When we observe large head movements, we put a confidence to the past HR probability rather than the current RGB/NIR observation. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
