## Abstract (arXiv)

Ballistocardiography (BCG) is promising for unobtrusive long-term blood pressure (BP) monitoring in laboratory settings, but traditional BCG signals are vulnerable to the variations in body-bed interaction with shifted fiducial points in temporal or amplitude axis, and BP varies with personal hemodynamic changes, causing misaligned representations that affect model generalizability and robustness. In this work, we propose Phy-BP, a physics-constrained BP estimation framework based on triaxial bodyseismography (BSG) acquired using bed-mounted sensors as an extension of single-axis BCG. Firstly, we design an adaptive quality-control algorithm combining neighboring beat patterns and universal cardiogenic templates to retain reliable cardiac components. Secondly, we propose a physical model of wave propagation through the body-bed system to constrain latent feature evolution, aligning triaxial representations generated by a shared cardiogenic excitation. These mechanical constraints connect multi-axis feature learning to body-bed dynamics and complement data-driven regression from vibration signals. Evaluation on a 162-hour hospital dataset from 21 subjects against invasive arterial BP yields a mean absolute error of 5.07 mmHg, a prediction-error standard deviation of 7.24 mmHg, and a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.86 for mean arterial pressure. This framework is intended for unobtrusive monitoring during rest and sleep, with potential applications in overnight hospital and home monitoring.
