Fatigue is a prevalent subjective sensation, affecting both office workers and a significant global population. In Taiwan alone, over 2.6 million individuals—around 30% of office workers—experience chronic fatigue. However, fatigue transcends workplaces, impacting people worldwide and potentially leading to health issues and accidents. Gaining insight into one’s fatigue status over time empowers effective management and risk reduction associated with other ailments. Utilizing photoplethysmography (PPG) signals brings advantages due to their easy acquisition and physiological insights. This study crafts a specialized preprocessing and peak detection methodology for PPG signals. A novel fatigue index stems from PPG signals, focusing on the dicrotic peak’s position. This index replaces subjective data from the brief fatigue index (BFI)-Taiwan questionnaire and heart rate variability (HRV) indices derived from PPG signals for assessing fatigue levels. Correlation analysis, involving sixteen healthy adults, highlights a robust correlation (R > 0.53) between the new fatigue index and specific BFI questions, gauging subjective fatigue over the last 24 h. Drawing from these insights, the study computes an average of the identified questions to formulate the evaluated fatigue score, utilizing the newfound fatigue index. The implementation of linear regression establishes a robust fatigue assessment system. The results reveal an impressive 91% correlation coefficient between projected fatigue levels and subjective fatigue experiences. This underscores the remarkable accuracy of the proposed fatigue prediction in evaluating subjective fatigue. This study further operationalized the proposed PPG processing, peak detection method, and fatigue index using C# in a computer environment alongside a PPG device, thereby offering real-time fatigue indices to users. Timely reminders are employed to prompt users to take notice when their index exceeds a predefined threshold, fostering greater attention to their physical well-being.

Fatigue Estimation Using Peak Features from PPG Signals

This monograph offers a detailed consideration of the five-volume novel written by Cao Xueqin and translated into English as The Story of the Stone, when read through William Shakespeare’s drama Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, A Tragedy in Five Acts. The book builds on the superlative David Hawkes/John Minford English language translation, which is inspired by resonances between the English Shakespearean literary heritage and the dynasties-old Chinese literary tradition inherited by Cao Xueqin. The Introduction sets out the potential for the significant cultural exchange between these two great literary works, each an inexhaustible inspiration of artistic and scholarly re-interpretation. Two chapters bring into consideration two universal literary themes: patriarchy – filial obedience and family honour, and tragic romantic love. These chapters are structured so that a key episode in Hamlet provides the initial perspective, which is then carried through to an episode in The Story of the Stone which offers points of complementarity: in-depth interpretation draws on inter-textual, historical and contemporary contexts referenced from the immense body of scholarly research which has accumulated around these iconic works. The third chapter proposes a new reading of the problematic ‘shrew’ character in the novel, Wang Xi-feng, through tracing the similarities of the structure of the narration of her life and death with a Shakespearean five-act tragedy.
