An Efficient Algorithm for Automatic Peak Detection in Noisy Periodic and Quasi-Periodic Signals (2012, methodology): “…fNIRS is a technique allowing non-invasive measurement of changes in the blood concentrations of oxyhemoglobin ([O 2 Hb]) and deoxyhemoglobin ([HHb]) by irradiating light in the near-infrared spectrum (600–950 nm) into the brain and analyzing the reflected light intensity changes [44–46].”
