Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of passenger comfort analysis and ergonomics of high-speed elevators, and in particular to a method for detecting human physiological (electrocardiogram and electrodermal) and behavioral dynamic information characteristics in a high-speed elevator translation acceleration environment. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, people often encounter passive acceleration, especially in translational transportation scenarios. A large number of studies have shown that the acceleration of high-speed elevators is closely related to people's emotions and peripheral physiological responses. Therefore, it is very important to develop a method that can sense the human body in passive acceleration events. When people are exposed to translational acceleration, the otolith organs play a role in the vestibular system to sense the passive translation of the body and trigger related human responses.

[0003] In practice, stress is a general term in psychology that refers to an emotional state that contains both negative valence and positive arousal. The experience of stress is paralleled by the activity of two major pathways, one involving the limbic system (called the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis) and the other involving the sympathetic component of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Therefore, otolith stimulation consisting of passive translational acceleration can affect stress responses through the projection area of ​​the vestibular cortex to the limbic system, which is mainly involved in the regulation of emotions. In the ANS pathway, autonomic processes usually respond to stress by activating the sympathetic nervous system and simultaneously inhibiting the parasympathetic nervous system.

[0004] Stress-related psychological processes are largely involuntary. The valence of autonomic states associated with the presence of a stressor is highly time-dependent and may be triggered when acceleration occurs but disappear quickly when the stressor is withdrawn. Biosignal signatures mediated by the autonomic nervous system can serve as reliable biomarkers for analyzing such time-dependent psychological activities.

[0005] Electrodermal activity (EDA) is a measure of skin conductivity that reflects the activity of sweat glands. Sweat gland activity is completely controlled by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), so EDA detection is an indicator of psychophysiological arousal. Skin conductance response (SCR) is a component of EDA. Earlier studies have demonstrated that the frequency of SCRs (SCRfre) increases under stressful situations. We also considered the complex dynamics of event-related SCR (ER-SCR) information and EDA signals, which helped to gain a deeper understanding of the EDA characteristics and stress assessment associated with a single acceleration stimulus. Summary of the invention

[0055] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 10 A method for detecting the riding comfort of high-speed elevator passengers based on skin electricity and electrocardiogram includes the following steps:

[0056] Step 1. Collect the accelerometer signal of the load platform of the high-speed elevator where the passenger is located over time, and simultaneously collect the passenger's electrocardiogram and skin electricity over time;

[0061] The classification process consists of the following sub-steps:

[0062] Step 2.1. Determine the maximum and minimum values ​​of the accelerometer signal when the carrier platform is in a braking stop state; the maximum and minimum values ​​are determined by the following method: collect the accelerometer signal when the carrier platform is in a braking stop state in step 1; perform hypothesis testing on the acceleration signal in the same spatial direction; given a significance level, determine the receiving domain of the acceleration signal in the same spatial direction; determine the maximum critical value of the receiving domain as the maximum value and the minimum critical value of the receiving domain as the minimum value; the hypothesis test is a two-tailed test; the significance level is 0.05;

[0063] Step 2.2. Classify the accelerometer signal that is greater than the maximum value or less than the minimum value as an accelerated running state.

[0064] Step 3: Label the accelerometer signal into categories.

[0065] Step 4. Determine the start time and end time of the accelerated running state in the acceleration signal; the start time is the time corresponding to the first data point of the continuous acceleration data marked as the accelerated running state, and the end time is the time corresponding to the last data point of the acceleration data marked as the accelerated running state that is continuous with the start time.

[0076] A high-speed elevator passenger comfort detection system based on electrocardiogram and skin electricity, the system includes:

[0077] ECG and galvanic skin signal collection device, used to collect ECG and galvanic skin signal data of passengers;

[0078] An acceleration acquisition device for acquiring accelerometer signal data over time of the load-bearing platform of the high-speed elevator where the passengers are located;

[0079] A data time synchronization module is used to unify the sampling rates of the ECG and EGD signal data of the ECG and EGD acquisition device and the accelerometer signal data of the acceleration acquisition device, and to align the data frames in time;

[0080] The passenger comfort analysis module is used to preprocess the ECG and skin electrical signal data and the accelerometer signal data, extract the time domain features, frequency domain features or information entropy features of the ECG and skin electrical data, and form a baseline feature set and an acceleration state feature set, and analyze the passenger comfort through the comparison results of the feature sets.

[0081] In the passenger comfort analysis module, preprocessing includes: noise reduction processing of accelerometer signal data and electrocardiogram and skin conductance signal data.

[0082] According to the upper threshold and the lower threshold of the accelerometer signal data, the acceleration signal data is divided into a stop / uniform speed running state and an accelerated running state.

[0083] Determine the event response time window of the ECG and galvanic skin signal data according to the category label of the data time synchronization module and the acceleration signal data; divide the ECG and galvanic skin signal data into the event response window and the event response window; wherein the acceleration acquisition device includes an accelerometer or a posture sensor; the ECG and galvanic skin acquisition device includes an electrode sheet, a finger clip, a watch or a glove; the noise reduction processing includes Kalman filtering, high-pass filtering, low-pass filtering or band-pass filtering.

[0084] Example 1: Using a posture sensor to obtain the three-axis acceleration of the center position of a high-speed elevator car, such as Fig.10The sensor is placed at the center of the high-speed elevator car platform. The acceleration signal is converted to 16-bit analog-to-digital with a sampling frequency of 2 kHz and then downsampled to 250 Hz. The acceleration data is then converted to horizontal-vertical coordinates using the gyro signal in the attitude sensor and a trigonometric coordinate transformation is applied.

[0085] The maximum strength of the positive half-sine wave of the acceleration curve of the high-speed elevator is measured to be 1.06g, and the maximum strength of the negative half-sine wave is 0.93g. Figure 2 , 3 .

[0086] In order to distinguish the acceleration and non-acceleration states of a high-speed elevator and extract the duration of the vertical translation acceleration, a pilot experiment was conducted. In the pilot experiment, the acceleration data of the high-speed elevator in operation were collected three times continuously for about 1 min, and the acceleration data were collected when the high-speed elevator was stationary. A single-sample t-test (two-tailed, α=0.05, t=0) was performed on the 1-minute vertical acceleration data in the stationary state to obtain the maximum and minimum values ​​of the receiving domain. The duration of the positive / negative half-sine wave is determined by the vertical acceleration data outside the rejection domain. The vertical acceleration data of the moving high-speed elevator was analyzed to obtain the average duration of the positive and negative half-sine waves, see Figure 2 , 3 .

[0087] EDA was collected with a sampling rate of 1 kHz. Two electrodes were connected to the distal phalanges of the index and middle fingers of the non-dominant hand to detect EDA, such as Figure 8 The original EDA data was preprocessed using a low-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 35 Hz, and then downsampled to 250 Hz. A 0.5 Hz high-pass filter was used, and 0.05 μS was used as the minimum threshold amplitude of the preprocessed EDA signal. The number of SCR signals was obtained from the preprocessed EDA data and divided by the time value. In other words, the number of SCRs in the preprocessed EDA signal greater than 0.05 μS is the SCR signal frequency (SCR fre ), the unit is nSCR / s. By calculating the SCR within 8s from the occurrence of the acceleration event to the end of the acceleration event fre , analyze the high-speed elevator ride comfort of passengers in the high-speed elevator car. The above data set is the acceleration state data set of EDA.

[0088] At the same time, the EDA data of passengers in the high-speed elevator in the stopped state is collected, and the data is intercepted with equal length according to the duration of the above EDA data, and the features are calculated using the same feature algorithm. The features are used as the baseline feature data of the passengers.

[0089] SCR of passengers in baseline condition freThe average value is 0.12±0.03 nSCR / s, and the SCR of passengers under acceleration fre The average value was 0.2±0.08 nSCR / s, see Table 1. Independent sample t test was used to perform statistical analysis on baseline characteristic data and acceleration state data set, see Figure 4 The results showed that the SCR signal frequency under acceleration was significantly greater than the baseline (p<0.05).

[0090] Table 1 shows the skin electrodermal characteristic parameters (mean ± standard deviation) in the baseline state and acceleration state, as well as the corresponding results of the p value for the comparison between the two.

[0093] Example 2: Using a posture sensor to obtain the three-axis acceleration of the center position of a high-speed elevator car, such as Fig.10 The sensor is placed at the center of the high-speed elevator car platform. The acceleration signal is converted to 16-bit analog-to-digital with a sampling frequency of 2 kHz and then downsampled to 250 Hz. The acceleration data is then converted to horizontal-vertical coordinates using the gyro signal in the attitude sensor and a trigonometric coordinate transformation is applied.

[0094] The maximum strength of the positive half-sine wave of the acceleration curve of the high-speed elevator is measured to be 1.06g, and the maximum strength of the negative half-sine wave is 0.93g. Figure 2 , 3 .

[0095] In order to distinguish the acceleration and non-acceleration states of the high-speed elevator and extract the duration of the vertical translation acceleration, a pilot experiment was conducted. In the pilot experiment, the acceleration data of the high-speed elevator operation were collected three times continuously for about 1 min, and the acceleration data were collected when the high-speed elevator was stationary. A single-sample t-test (two-tailed, α=0.05, t=0) was performed on the 1-minute vertical acceleration data in the stationary state, and the maximum and minimum values ​​of the acceptance domain were accepted. The duration of the positive / negative half-sine wave is determined by the vertical acceleration data outside the rejection domain. The vertical acceleration data of the moving high-speed elevator were analyzed to obtain the average duration of the positive and negative half-sine waves, see Figure 2 , 3 .

[0096] Record the electrocardiogram with a sampling rate of 1 kHz, where the positive electrode is placed on the left upper limb, the negative electrode is placed on the right upper limb, and the ground electrode is placed on the left lower limb. Fig. 9. The ECG signal is processed by a 0.5 ~ 40 Hz bandpass filter. HRV is calculated based on the RR interval extracted from the ECG signal. Fast Fourier transform is used to perform frequency domain analysis on HRV. HRV parameters include the root mean square (RMSSD) of the continuous difference of normal heartbeats and the low-frequency power. The above parameters are used as the characteristics of HRV, and the data set they constitute is the acceleration state data set. The HRV collection data segment is within 180 seconds from the acceleration event to the end of the acceleration event. At the same time, the HRV data of passengers in the high-speed elevator in the stopped state is collected, and the data is intercepted with equal length according to the duration of the above-mentioned HRV data, and the features are calculated using the same feature algorithm. This feature is used as the baseline feature data of the passenger.

[0097] The mean RMSSD of the passengers in the baseline condition was 24.66±7.71 ms, and the mean RMSSD of the passengers in the acceleration condition was 20.22±6.06 ms, see Table 2. The mean LF of the passengers in the baseline condition was 329.62±75.87 ms 2 The average LF of passengers in the acceleration state is 227.31±78.75 ms 2 , see Table 2. The baseline characteristic data and the accelerated state data set were statistically analyzed using the t test, and the results are shown in Figure 5 , 6 The results showed that the RMSSD in the acceleration state was significantly smaller than that in the baseline (p<0.05), and the LF in the acceleration state was also significantly smaller than that in the baseline (p<0.05).

[0098] Table 2 shows the ECG characteristic parameters (mean ± standard deviation) of the baseline state and the acceleration state, as well as the corresponding results of the p value for the comparison between the two.
