A Survey on Psycho Physiological Analysis Measurement Methods in Multimodal Systems
Psycho physiological analysis has gained greater attention in the last few decades in various fields including multimodal systems. Researchers use psychophysiological feedback devices such as skin conductance (SC) Electroencephalography (EEG) and Electrocardiography (ECG) to detect the affective states of the users during task performance. Psycho physiological feedback has been successful in detection of the cognitive states of users in human computer interaction (HCI) Recently, in game studies, psycho physiological feedback has been used to capture the user experience and the effect of interaction on human psychology. This paper reviews several psycho physiological, cognitive, and affective assessment studies and focuses on the use of psychophysiological signals in estimating the user's cognitive and emotional states in multimodal systems. In this paper, we review the measurement techniques and methods that have been used to record psycho physiological signals as well as the cognitive and emotional states in a variety of conditions. The aim of this review is to conduct a detailed study to identify, describe and analyze the key psycho physiological parameters that relate to different mental and emotional states in order to provide an insight into key approaches. Furthermore, the advantages and limitations of these approaches are also highlighted in this paper. The findings state that the classification accuracy of >90% has been achieved in classifying emotions with EEG signals. A strong correlation between self reported data, HCI experience, and psychophysiological data has been observed in a wide range of domains including games, human robot interaction, mobile interaction, and simulations. An increase in b and g band activity have been observed in high intense games and simulations.
