    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating blood pressure may include: a photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor configured to measure a PPG signal from a user; and a processor configured to: extract a cardiovascular feature from the PPG signal; calculate a first variation in the extracted cardiovascular feature compared to a reference cardiovascular feature measured at a reference time; determine a measurement posture of the PPG signal based on a time interval between two waveform components of the PPG signal; in response to the measurement posture corresponding to the reference posture, estimate the blood pressure based on the first variation; and in response to the measurement posture not corresponding to the reference posture, obtain a second variation by correcting the first variation; and estimate blood pressure based on the second variation.

    Abstract: An adaptive bio-signal feature combining apparatus includes: a feature extractor configured to extract first feature values and second feature values from a bio-signal of an object; a stable interval determiner configured to determine at least one stable interval in the bio-signal; a statistical variable calculator configured to calculate a statistical variable value of a first feature and a statistical variable value of a second feature for each of the at least one stable interval based on the first and second feature values extracted from the at least one stable interval; and a feature combiner configured to calculate an integrated combining coefficient that is used to combine the first feature and the second feature, based on the statistical variable value of the first feature and the statistical variable value of the second feature.
