Predicting Stress Level Variation from Learner Characteristics and Brainwaves

چکیده
It is very common that students fail their exam because of an excessive stress. However, an attitude with no stress at all can cause the same thing as stress can be beneficial in some learning cases. Studying the stress level variation can then be very useful in a learning environment. In this paper, the aim is predicting the stress level variation of the learner in relation to his electrical brain activity within an experiment over two days. To attain that goal, three personal and nonpersonal characteristics were used: gender, usual mode of study and dominant activity between the first and second day. 21 participants were recruited for our experiment. Results were very encouraging: an accuracy of 71% was obtained by using the ID3 machine learning algorithm.

Predicting Learner Answers Correctness through Brainwaves Assesment and Emotional Dimensions
We want to explore the relation between affective states, brainwaves and the learner answers during a multi-choice test questions. 24 participants were used in our experiment. While we were measuring their brainwaves, we asked them to answer 35 questions related to the 7 texts they read, for the first time, the day before. During the experiment, the participants can rate, at any time, their emo...
متن کاملDetecting Guessed and Random Learners' Answers through Their Brainwaves
This paper describes an experiment in which we tried to predict the learner’s answers from his brainwaves. We discuss the efficiency to enrich the learner model with some electrical brain metrics to obtain some important information about the learner during a test. We conducted an experiment to reach three objectives: the first one is to record the learner brainwaves and his answers to the test...
متن کاملPredicting the Three Major Dimensions of the Learner-s Emotions from Brainwaves
This paper investigates how the use of machine learning techniques can significantly predict the three major dimensions of learner’s emotions (pleasure, arousal and dominance) from brainwaves. This study has adopted an experimentation in which participants were exposed to a set of pictures from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) while their electrical brain activity was recorded ...

This paper proposes and evaluates a multi-agents system called NORA that predicts emotional attributes from learners' brainwaves within an Intelligent Tutoring System. The measurements from the electrical brain activity of the learner are combined with information about the learner's emotional attributes. Electroencephalogram was used to measure brainwaves and Self Reports to measure the three ...
متن کاملPredicting Shear Stress Distribution in Rectangular Channels Using Entropy Concept
This study makes use of the Tsallis entropy to predict the shear stress distribution. Given a definition of the Tsallis entropy, it is maximized by using the probability density function, which then is used to attain a novel shear stress equation. This is then employed for calculating the shear stress distribution in rectangular channels in different aspect ratios and finally, for viability, th...
