Provided are an electronic device and method for providing information related to a skin type of an object. The electronic device includes: a camera configured to capture at least one image including a skin portion and a non-skin portion of an object; and a processor configured to determine at least one color ratio between the skin portion and the non-skin portion from the at least one image, and determine a skin type of the object based on the determined at least one color ratio.

Electronic device and method for providing information related to skin type of object

A method and an electronic device for measuring blood pressure are provided. The method includes illuminating, by a PPG sensor included in the electronic device, skin of a user and measuring a PPG signal based on an illumination absorption by the skin. Further, the method also includes extracting, by the electronic device, a plurality of parameters from the PPG signal, wherein the parameters may comprise PPG features, Heart Rate Variability (HRV) features, Acceleration Plethysmograph (APG) features, and non-linear features. The method also includes estimating, by the electronic device, the BP based on the extracted plurality of parameters.

Method and electronic device for cuff-less blood pressure (BP) measurement

An electronic device for determining an ultraviolet (UV) dose includes a memory, at least one non-UV sensor, a display, and a processor, coupled to the memory, the at least one non-UV sensor, and the display. The processor is configured to determine a context of the electronic device, obtain information of ambient light using one or more parameter sensed by the light sensor, estimate an ultraviolet (UV) dose based on the context of the electronic device and the information of ambient light, and control the display to output information of the UV dose.

A method of compressing sequence data in a text-based format, the method involving parsing text of the sequence data into a plurality of fields, identifying encoding algorithms that achieve greatest compression gains with respect to the plurality of fields based on collected statistics, and generating a bitstream, compressed from the sequence data, by encoding the sequence data using the identified encoding algorithms.

Method and apparatus for compressing genetic data

A system and a method for enabling a fingerprint registration on a mobile device are provided. The mobile device includes a fingerprint registration unit configured to receive at least one first image of a fingerprint input in a first orientation, receive at least one second image of the fingerprint input in a second orientation, and generate a fingerprint image by stitching the at least one first image with the at least one second image such that the first orientation and the second orientation are substantially perpendicular to each other.

System and method for partial fingerprint enrollment and matching using small size fingerprint sensors

A method and a device for classifying cardiac arrhythmia, using an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal, are provided. The method includes receiving the ECG signal representing an electrical activity of a heart of an individual over a period of time, the ECG signal including ECG beats. The method further includes converting each of the ECG beats into symbols. The method further includes identifying an arrhythmia class indicating a type of cardiac arrhythmia associated with the individual from arrhythmia classes indicating respective types of cardiac arrhythmia based on the symbols representing each of the ECG beats.

Method and apparatus for classifying cardiac arrhythmia

Provided are methods and apparatuses for compressing genetic information, the methods and apparatuses obtaining read information about reads and alignment information about positions of the reads that are aligned to a reference sequence, and generating a compressed file comprising information about an address of a block corresponding to the aligned reads. Also, a method and apparatus for decompressing genetic information obtains a compressed file with respect to the genetic information, determines an address of a block corresponding to input gene search information, from the compressed file, and selectively decompresses genetic information corresponding to the determined address.
