Synheart Capacity: A Theory-Driven Physiological Representation of Cognitive Capacity Dynamics from Wearable Signals

- 构建心率与皮肤电的双流模型,分离精力与压力状态
- 跨被试验证准确率达70%(压力)和72.2%(精力)
- 适合开发自适应人机交互系统,尤其关注注意力管理
人类认知表现受限于有限的心理资源,但持续计算认知能力动态仍面临挑战。我们提出一种基于理论的多模态学习框架,将与容量相关的认知状态建模为二维生理表示:自愿资源分配(心理努力)与过载相关应激(压力)。该架构结合心率变异性(IBI/HRV)与皮肤电活动(EDA)的双流编码、晚期融合及任务特定输出头,独立估计努力与压力的概率状态。在SWELL-KW数据集上采用严格的留一被试交叉验证,结果显示跨个体泛化性能良好(压力:70.0%平衡准确率;努力:72.2%),多模态融合与理论引导监督带来显著提升。相比将生理动态简化为单一负荷标签,所提出的努力-压力状态空间能结构化区分不同认知状态,如高效投入与过载应激。预测状态轨迹在受控工作量操作下表现出显著的需求敏感性变化,且努力与压力在中断与时间压力条件下响应不同。结果表明,基于生理学的多维状态表征可能为连续容量感知监控与以人为本交互提供基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Human cognitive performance is constrained by limited mental resources, yet continuous computational estimation of cognitive capacity dynamics remains an open challenge. We propose a theory-driven multimodal learning framework that models capacity-related cognitive state as a two-dimensional physiological representation defined by voluntary resource allocation (mental effort) and overload-related strain (stress). The proposed architecture combines dual-stream encoding of cardiac (IBI/HRV) and electrodermal (EDA) signals with late fusion and task-specific output heads that independently estimate probabilistic effort and stress states. Evaluation on the SWELL-KW dataset using strict leave-one-subject-out cross-validation demonstrates cross-individual generalization (stress: 70.0\% balanced accuracy; effort: 72.2\%), with significant gains from multimodal integration and theory-guided supervision. Rather than collapsing physiological dynamics into a single workload label, the proposed effort--stress state-space enables structured differentiation between distinct cognitive regimes, including productive engagement and overload-related strain. Predicted state trajectories exhibit significant demand-sensitive shifts under controlled workload manipulations, with effort and stress responding differentially across interruption and time-pressure conditions. These results suggest that physiologically grounded multidimensional state representations may provide a foundation for adaptive systems capable of continuous capacity-aware monitoring and human-centered interaction.
