Really pleased to have presented this at the @AicsConference in @MTU_ie! This work evaluates signal variances in wearables for classifying affective states, analysing differences in features & identifying signal and affect-specific features. #hci #ml #ai #phdchat #phdlife (1/3).
Zac Dair, @SamanthaDockray & @RuairiCS (@MTU_ie) have published a paper exploring if signal variance from wearable tech might indicate ppl's emotional state. @ZacDair 's PhD at MTU is supported @AdvanceCrt supervised by Ruairi O'Reilly (@MTU Computer Science) & Samantha @UCC

Future work will extend the analysis to provide greater insights for generalisable ML approaches to affective state detection from physiological data. Supervised by @RuairiCS and @SamanthaDockray and supported by @AdvanceCrt. (3/3).

Quick Preview: The variance in HRV features between temporally aligned ECG and PPG can help indicate signal noise or motion artefacts. If you're interested in reading more, the full paper is available (open access) (2/3)

Really exciting to see this level of immersion without requiring tons of cables! Integrating physiological awareness of the player in #VR is a real futuristic venture! 🚀 I hope to explore something similar during my PhD research #physiology #HCI #gaming_news #phdlife.
In horror games, you often have to press a button to hold your breath in order to hide from a monster - What if you could just physically hold your breath instead?🫁. Using 2 Vive Tracker strapped to my chest (front & back) and signal processing, I built a prototype to test this!

As I'm getting going in my #PhD journey, I thought it best to expand my network 🌍.I'm currently focusing on Affective Computing, HCI and Psychobiology. Excited to see how this all goes!.#phdchat #AcademicChatter.
