用手机加速度计监测呼吸,自动评估正念水平,提升冥想应用体验。

Mindfulness Meditation and Respiration: Accelerometer-Based Respiration Rate and Mindfulness Progress Estimation to Enhance App Engagement and Mindfulness Skills

  • 通过手机加速度计追踪慢呼吸,无需额外设备。
  • 呼吸误差仅1.6次/分钟,正念能力评估准确率达80%-84%。
  • 适合想提升冥想效果的用户和开发数字健康应用的研究者。

正念训练被广泛认可为缓解抑郁、焦虑和孤独感的有效方式。随着基于智能手机的正念应用普及,数字冥想更易获取,但长期用户参与度仍是挑战。本文探索呼吸生物信号反馈与正念技能评估能否提升系统可用性与技能发展。我们开发了一种基于智能手机加速度计的呼吸频率追踪算法,无需额外可穿戴设备。相比现有方法,该方案能精准捕捉正念冥想中典型的慢呼吸模式。此外,首次提出基于加速度计数据的正念技能量化框架,评估专注力、感官清晰度与平静度。在261个受控及真实场景的冥想会话中测试算法。用户对照实验显示,接受呼吸反馈的实验组比使用标准应用的对照组具有更高的系统可用性。呼吸追踪模型平均绝对误差(MAE)为1.6次/分钟,接近真实值;正念技能评估的F1分数达80%-84%,有效追踪技能进展。将该技术集成至商业应用后,证明手机传感器可显著增强数字正念训练效果。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Mindfulness training is widely recognized for its benefits in reducing depression, anxiety, and loneliness. With the rise of smartphone-based mindfulness apps, digital meditation has become more accessible, but sustaining long-term user engagement remains a challenge. This paper explores whether respiration biosignal feedback and mindfulness skill estimation enhance system usability and skill development. We develop a smartphone's accelerometer-based respiration tracking algorithm, eliminating the need for additional wearables. Unlike existing methods, our approach accurately captures slow breathing patterns typical of mindfulness meditation. Additionally, we introduce the first quantitative framework to estimate mindfulness skills-concentration, sensory clarity, and equanimity-based on accelerometer-derived respiration data. We develop and test our algorithms on 261 mindfulness sessions in both controlled and real-world settings. A user study comparing an experimental group receiving biosignal feedback with a control group using a standard app shows that respiration feedback enhances system usability. Our respiration tracking model achieves a mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.6 breaths per minute, closely aligning with ground truth data, while our mindfulness skill estimation attains F1 scores of 80-84% in tracking skill progression. By integrating respiration tracking and mindfulness estimation into a commercial app, we demonstrate the potential of smartphone sensors to enhance digital mindfulness training.
