Research Interests

embodied intelligent behaviour that adapts to human cognitive and affective states

Current Research

With the aim of equipping technology to address the psychological barriers to physical functioning in chronic pain, I am investigating and developing systems for the automatic detection of levels of pain-related affective states. My focus is on the detection of pain, movement confidence, and emotional distress from bodily expressions and muscle activation during physical activity using machine learning algorithms on motion capture and surface electromyography data. I also investigate the development of low-cost wearable devices to enable the ubiquitous monitoring of the afore-mentioned states.
