Summary: | This paper proposes a machine learning approach to detect threats using short-term PPG (photoplethysmogram) signals from a commercial smartwatch. In supervised learning, having accurately annotated training data is essential. However, a key challenge in the threat detection problem is the uncertainty regarding how accurately data labeled as ‘threat’ reflect actual threat responses since participants may react differently to the same experiments. In this paper, Gaussian Mixture Models are learned to remove ambiguously labeled training, and those models are also used to remove ambiguous test data. For the realistic test scenario, PPG measurements are collected from participants playing a horror VR (Virtual Reality) game, and the proposed method validates the superiority of our proposed approach in comparison with other methods. Also, the proposed filtering with GMM improves prediction accuracy by 23% compared to the method that does not incorporate the filtering. |
