Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of signal analysis technology, specifically to a method for assessing psychological stress state based on multi-knowledge domain information. Background Technology
[0002] Since psychological phenomena and physiological reactions are corresponding and interdependent, changes in psychological state directly affect changes in physiological indicators. Therefore, interpreting this barometer of physiological characteristic changes, and clearly or statistically accurately identifying one or a combination of physiological characteristics that represents changes in psychological stress, can effectively identify psychological stress states. This not only helps to understand the severity and incidence of psychological trauma in stressed individuals, providing a basis for decision-making regarding resource allocation for psychological assistance work, but also enables more precise identification of key targets for psychological assistance work, providing personalized intervention and treatment, and providing a basis for subsequent intervention work and consolidation of therapeutic effects.
[0003] However, the human body is an extremely complex nonlinear dynamic system, constantly influenced by various internal environmental regulations and external environmental disturbances, exhibiting significant individual differences. Physiological and psychological state changes are coupled and influence each other on both temporal and spatial scales. Therefore, traditional stress assessment methods based on psychological scales or psychophysiological measurements are difficult to objectively and continuously provide qualitative and quantitative assessments of psychological stress. With the establishment of behaviorist theory and the development of systems theory, cybernetics, and information theory, the acquisition of comprehensive life information perception by individuals has broken through the limitations of space and time. How to improve and perfect the theory and comprehensive evaluation system for estimating human psychosomatic states based on the theory of biofeedback closed-loop control systems, and how to deterministically assess psychological stress states in the absence of clear stressors, and achieve a deterministic match between subjective psychological perception and objective physiological representation during feedback intervention, remains an urgent problem to be solved in the psychosomatic field. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a method for assessing psychological stress states based on multi-knowledge domain information, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for assessing psychological stress state based on multi-knowledge domain information, specifically including the following steps:

[0024] This invention provides a method for assessing psychological stress state based on multi-knowledge domain information. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] This invention proposes key factors through multiple knowledge domains, combines physiological and psychological information with key factors to generate multimodal data, and improves the confidence of data analysis. By constructing key factor association networks and topological analysis, it not only helps to reveal the relationships between factors, optimize feature selection, and improve model performance, but also, in conjunction with deep learning models for feature fusion and classification, achieves accurate assessment of psychological stress state.
