Abstract
- This paper presents an approach to detecting perceived stress in students using data collected with smartphones. The goal is to develop a machine-learning model that can unobtrusively detect the stress level in students using data from several smartphone sources: accelerometers, audio recorder, GPS, Wi-Fi, call log and light sensor. From these, features were constructed describing the students' deviation from usual behaviour. As ground truth, we used the data obtained from stress level questionnaires with three possible stress levels: "Not stressed", "Slightly stressed" and "Stressed". Several machine learning approaches were tested: a general models for all the students, models for cluster of similar students, and student-specific models. Our findings show that the perceived stress is highly subjective and that only person-specific models are substantially better than the baseline.
