Title Sheth, P., Schneider, J., & Hassan, T. (2026). Integrating uncertainty-aware stress detection with spoken dialogue-based interaction for human-centered stress management. In Proceedings of the AHFE International Conference on Intelligent Human Systems Integration (IHSI 2026) (Vol. 200, pp. 617-627).
Abstract Stress is a major factor influencing both mental and physical health, contributing to anxiety, depression, and cardiovascular disease. Traditional stress management tools, such as meditation apps and therapy, often depend on self-reports or fixed schedules, limiting their effectiveness in real-time situations.
Title Schneider, J. (2025). Towards Intelligent Adaption in Cognitive Assistance Systems through Physiological Computing. In Proceedings of the 27th International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI ’25) (pp. 749-753).
Abstract With the growing prevalence of cognitive impairments around the globe and in Europe, an increasing number of people are likely to experience cognitive decline during their working years. Supporting these individuals to remain in employment is imperative, both to promote personal well-being and to enable organizations to retain experienced and skilled workers.
Title Schneider, J., Cheruvalath, S. S., & Hassan, T. (2024, October). Time for an Explanation: A Mini-Review of Explainable Physio-Behavioural Time-Series Classification. In Companion of the 2024 on ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing (pp. 885-889).
Abstract Time-series classification is seeing growing importance as device proliferation has lead to the collection of an abundance of sensor data. Although black-box models, whose internal workings are difficult to understand, are a common choice for this task, their use in safety-critical domains has raised calls for greater transparency.
