Healthcare professionals, especially nurses, experience heightened stress levels, accentuated by the COVID-19 crisis.
A new study presents a novel ensemble machine learning framework for stress monitoring using wearable sensor data.
The framework addresses data challenges by utilizing a multimodal dataset and advanced ML models like Random Forest and XGBoost.
The research aims to enhance the development of real-time stress-monitoring systems for healthcare workers' well-being, with future directions including demographic diversity and edge-computing implementations.
