Abstract: Various systems and methods for engagement dissemination. A face detector detects a face in video data. A context filterer determines a student is on-platform and a section type. An appearance monitor selects an emotional and a behavioral classifiers. Emotional and behavioral components are classified based on the detected face. A context-performance monitor selects an emotional and a behavioral classifiers specific to the section type, Emotional and behavioral components are classified based on the log data. A fuser combines the emotional components into an emotional state of the student based on confidence values of the emotional components. The fuser combines the behavioral components a behavioral state of the student based on confidence values of the behavioral components. The user determine an engagement level of the student based on the emotional state and the behavioral state of the student.

Abstract: Devices and methods for a vehicle are provided in this disclosure. A device for controlling an active seat of a vehicle may include a processor and a memory. The memory may be configured to store a transfer function. The processor may be configured to predict an acceleration of the active seat of the vehicle based on a first sensor data and the transfer function. The first sensor data may include information indicating an acceleration of a vibration source for the vehicle. The processor may be further configured to generate a control signal to control a movement of the active seat at a first instance of time based on the predicted acceleration.

Abstract: Devices and methods for an occupant of a vehicle are provided in this disclosure. A device for identifying an occupant of a vehicle may include a processor. The processor may be configured to determine an identity for the occupant based on a first sensor data including information indicating a detection of a facial attribute of the occupant. The processor may further be configured to estimate a behavior for the occupant based on a second sensor data including information indicating a detection of a body attribute of the occupant. The processor may further be configured to determine a spoofing attempt result indicating whether the occupant attempts a spoofing based on the determined identity and the estimated behavior.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for identifying food chewed or beverage drank are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a device may comprise one or more sensors to provide vibration signal data representative of vibrations sensed from a nasal bridge of a user wearing the device, a chewing analyzer to extract from the vibration signal data a first plurality of features associated with chewing activities, and/or a drinking analyzer is to extract from the vibration signal data a second plurality of features associated with drinking activities. The extracted first and/or second plurality of features, in turn, may be used to determine a category of food the user was chewing, or a category of beverage the user was drinking. In embodiments, the methods and apparatuses may use personalized models.

Abstract: Technologies for emotion prediction based on breathing patterns include a wearable device. The wearable device includes a breathing sensor to generate breathing data, one or more processors, and one or more memory devices having stored therein a plurality of instructions that, when executed, cause the wearable device to calibrate a personalized emotion predictive model associated with the user, collect breathing data of the user of the wearable device, analyze the breathing data to determine a breathing pattern, predict, in response to an analysis of the breathing data, the emotional state of the user using the personalized emotion predictive model, and output the emotional state of the user.

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and/or methods may provide a mental state determination. For example, a data collector may collect image data for a side of a face of a user from an image capture device on the user (e.g., a wearable device). The image data may include two or more perspectives of a feature on the side of the face of the user. In addition, a state determiner may determine a mental state of the user based on the image data. In one example, fields of view may be combined to determine a total region and/or a total overlap region. Changing the position that one or more image capture devices point may modulate the total region and/or the total overlap region. In addition, one or more sensors may be utilized to further improve mental data determinations.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to generating a personalized model using a machine learning process, identifying a learning engagement state of a learner based at least in part on the personalized model, and tailoring computerized provision of an educational program to the learner based on the learning engagement state. An apparatus to provide a computer-aided educational program may include one or more processors operating modules that may receive indications of interactions of a learner and indications of physical responses of the learner, generate a personalized model using a machine learning process based at least in part on the interactions of the learner and the indications of physical responses of the learner during a calibration time period, and identify a current learning state of the learner based at least in part on the personalized model during a usage time period. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to identifying a learning engagement state of a learner. A computing platform with one or more processors running modules may receive indications of interactions of a learner with an educational program as well as indications of physical responses of the learner collected substantially simultaneously as the learner interacts with the educational program. A current learning engagement state of the learner may be identified based at least in part on the received indications by using an artificial neural network associated that is calibrated to the learner. The artificial neural network may be trained and updated in part by human observation and learner self-reporting of the learner's current learning engagement state.
