Abstract

StressID is a new dataset specifically designed for stress identification fromunimodal and multimodal data. It contains videos of facial expressions, audiorecordings, and physiological signals. The video and audio recordings are acquiredusing an RGB camera with an integrated microphone. The physiological datais composed of electrocardiography (ECG), electrodermal activity (EDA), andrespiration signals that are recorded and monitored using a wearable device. Thisexperimental setup ensures a synchronized and high-quality multimodal data col-lection. Different stress-inducing stimuli, such as emotional video clips, cognitivetasks including mathematical or comprehension exercises, and public speakingscenarios, are designed to trigger a diverse range of emotional responses. Thefinal dataset consists of recordings from 65 participants who performed 11 tasks,as well as their ratings of perceived relaxation, stress, arousal, and valence levels.StressID is one of the largest datasets for stress identification that features threedifferent sources of data and varied classes of stimuli, representing more than39 hours of annotated data in total. StressID offers baseline models for stressclassification including a cleaning, feature extraction, and classification phase foreach modality. Additionally, we provide multimodal predictive models combiningvideo, audio, and physiological inputs. The data and the code for the baselines areavailable at https://project.inria.fr/stressid/.
