An Autonomous Alarm System for Personal Safety Assurance of Intimate Partner Violence Survivors Based on Passive Continuous Monitoring through Biosensors

Abstract: Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) dramatically compromises the free and complete development of many women around the world, therefore leading to social asymmetry regarding the right to personal safety. In many cases, a woman who has reported her partner to police for gender-based violence needs to ensure her protection (either before the trial of the aggressor or after their freedom). Thus, it would be ideal if autonomous alarm systems could be developed in order to call the police if necessary. Up to now, many… Show more

“…In [ 23 ], an evaluation was performed to develop a concept for the assessment of fatigue, acute stress and combat/cognitive readiness in military battle tank crews by recording the ECG and the physical activity and eye movements during sleep, but no experiments were shown. Studies were also out to detect intimate partner violence [ 24 ], where monitoring of heart rate (HR), pulse, body temperature, electrodermal activity (EDA) and the brain’s electrical activity was proposed for training machine learning algorithms to generate automatic aggression alarms without the victim’s conscious action, but no experimental validation is available.…”

“…Moreover, for stress detection, although the four bio-signals are used, the most important feature is EDA because of its relationship with the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), since this system acts as a trigger for stress. HR and respiration rate increase and EEG gamma waves appear with a stress state [ 20 , 22 , 24 , 39 ].…”

“…In non-dangerous conditions, data is first collected by sensors to train the algorithm. A passive continuous monitoring system is proposed in [16] using both survivorattached biosensors and machine learning techniques. According to the current status of wearable and biomedical device technology, the monitoring structure of the system supervises a lot of bio-signals.…”

“…When a person is being physically attacked, the person shows the "flight or fight response" which is the physiological or physical change triggered by extreme fear. For example, a rise in blood pressure, an increase in heart rate, and an increase in breathing rate making the body ready to take action immediately when faced with danger [6]. These physical changes (signals) which are referred to as parameters in this study are defined as any property that is used to characterize and determine the presence of distress.…”
