Method and system for monitoring a human state on an arousal scale

An arousal estimation system is proposed herein that estimates a human psychophysiological state on an arousal scale, using an arousal detection model that outputs a single arousal score characterizing arousal, rather than a particular target state, such as drowsiness, stress, or cognitive load. Based on an estimated arousal score, the human state can be characterized as either within or outside a desired range of arousal levels associated with optimal performance of relevant tasks. The arousal detection model is trained on a wider set of sensor data than may be applicable to a specific mental state. By training the arousal detection model on the wider set of sensor data associated with different arousal levels, an arousal score generated by the arousal detection model may generate a more accurate estimation of the human state than the conventional single state detectors, even when combined.
