Title
An Unobtrusive Stress Recognition System For The Smart Office
Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to monitor office workers' behavioral patterns and heart rate variability. We integrated an EMFi sensor into a chair to measure the pressure changes caused by a user's body movements and heartbeat. Then, we employed machine learning methods to develop a classification model through which different work behaviors (body moving, typing, talking and browsing) could be recognized from the sensor data. Subsequently, we developed a BCG processing method to process the data recognized as 'browsing' and further calculate heart rate variability. The results show that the developed model achieved classification accuracies of up to 91% and the HRV could be calculated effectively with an average error of 5.77ms, By combining these behavioral and physiological measures, the proposed approach portrays work-related stress in a more comprehensive manner and could contribute an unobtrusive early stress detection system for future smart offices.
