State-Specific Respiratory Signatures for Affective and Stress Recognition: Interpretable Respiratory Markers, Autocorrelation Lags, and Compact CNN Models

arXiv:2606. 26723v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Respiratory activity is a direct and interpretable physiological channel for wearable stress and affective-state recognition, yet many studies emphasize classification accuracy without identifying which respiratory properties separate different states.

BreathGRU: A Novel Semi-Supervised Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit Framework for Speech and Breath Segmentation for Respiratory Audio

BreathGRU is a semi‑supervised Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit framework designed to segment speech and breath events in respiratory audio. It combines acoustic feature extraction, bidirectional recurrent modeling, pseudo‑label refinement, and duration‑constrained Segmental Viterbi decoding to produce accurate speech‑breath segmentation. In evaluations against existing methods, BreathGRU achieved the highest breath event recall, lowest onset‑localisation error, and highest Mean Match Intersection over Union, outperforming large pretrained VAD models such as Silero.

Deep learning-based detection of cessation of breathing in pre-term infants

Apnoea of prematurity is characterised by recurrent episodes of cessation of breathing and remains difficult to detect reliably using routinely monitored physiological signals in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Existing bedside monitors rely primarily on respiratory rate and oxygen saturation thresholds, often generating high false-positive alarm rates and missing short or irregular events.

State-specific respiratory signatures for affective and stress recognition: Interpretable respiratory markers, autocorrelation lags, and compact CNN models

The study investigates respiratory signals from the WESAD dataset to detect stress and other affective states. It compares compact 1‑D CNN models trained on raw 60‑second signals with handcrafted respiratory signatures that capture timing, variability, waveform, spectral, and autocorrelation features. While the CNN achieves the highest accuracy for stress detection, the handcrafted signatures provide stronger, physiologically interpretable markers for baseline, amusement, and especially meditation states.
