1. A method for determining a heart-rate variability (HRV) measurement of a user, comprising:
- receiving, from a sensor of an electronic device of the user, heart sensor data;
determining a noise level of the received heart sensor data; and
adjusting the HRV measurement by an amount calculated based on the determined noise level.

Abstract
In particular embodiments, a method for determining a heart-rate variability (HRV) measurement of a user may include receiving, from a sensor of an electronic device of the user, heart sensor data, determining a noise level of the heart sensor data, and then adjusting the HRV measurement by an amount calculated based on the determined noise level. The sensor data may include data on a photoplethysmograph (PPG) signal over a noise-calculation time period.

21. A method for measuring heart rate, comprising:
-
receiving, from a sensor of an electronic device of a user, heart sensor data; analyzing an amount of noise at one or more predetermined features of the heart sensor data to determine whether the one or more features have been corrupted by noise; and computing RR intervals of the heart rate based on one or more of the features that are determined to not have been corrupted by noise. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
