Automatic pain recognition from Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) signal using machine learning techniques [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Physiological responses to pain have received increasing attention among researchers for developing an automated pain recognition sensing system. Though less explored, Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) is one of the candidate physiological measures that could help objective pain assessment. In this study, we applied machine learning techniques on BVP signals to
