Electrodermal Activity as a Unimodal Signal for Aerobic Exercise Detection in Wearable Sensors

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.15880v1 Announce Type: cross Electrodermal Activity (EDA) is a non-invasive physiological signal widely available in wearable devices and reflects sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation. Prior multi-modal studies have nstrated robust performance in distinguishing stress and exercise states when EDA is combined with complementary signals such as heart rate and accelerometry. However, the ability of EDA to independently distinguish sustained aerobic exercise from low-arousal states under subject-independent evaluation remains insufficiently characterized.
