Neuro-Fuzzy Physiological Computing to Assess Stress Levels in Virtual Reality Therapy

This paper reports the design and assessment of a neuro-fuzzy model to support clinicians during virtual reality therapy. The implemented model is able to automatically recognize the perceived stress levels of the patients by analyzing physiological and behavioral data during treatment. The model, consisting of a self-organizing map and a fuzzy-rule-based module, was trained unobtrusively recordin...
