Analysis of Intra-Operative Physiological Responses Through Complex Higher-Order SVD for Long-Term Post-Operative Pain Prediction [PDF]
Long-term pain conditions after surgery and patients' responses to pain relief medications are not yet fully understood. While recent studies developed an index for nociception level of patients under general anesthesia, based on multiple physiological parameters, it remains unclear whether and how dynamics of these parameters indicate long-term post ...

Physiologically Driven Storytelling: Concept and Software Tool [PDF]
We put forth Physiologically Driven Storytelling, a new approach to interactive storytelling where narratives adaptively unfold based on the reader's physiological state. We first describe a taxonomy framing how physiological signals can be used to drive interactive systems both as input and output.
