Abstract

The human psychophysiological processes are complex phenomenon built upon the physical scaffolding of the body. Machine learning approaches facilitate the understanding of numerous physiological processes underlying complex human mental states and behavior, leading to a new research direction named Computational Psychophysiology. Computational Psychophysiology aims to reveal the psychophysiological processes underlying complex human emotion and mental states from a computational perspective, and can be used to predict affective and psychological outcomes based on different physiological features or experimental manipulations. In this paper, we discuss the benefits and challenges in the future of bringing computing technologies into decoding human mental states.
