Abstract
The rapid development of driving simulators for the evaluation of automated driving experience is constrained by the simulator sickness-related nausea. The electrogastrogram (EGG)-based approach may be promising for immediate, objective, and quantitative nausea assessment. Given the relatively high EGG sensitivity to noises associated with the relatively low amplitude and frequency spans, we introduce an automated procedure comprising statistical analysis and machine learning techniques for EGG-based nausea detection in relation to the noise contamination during automated driving simulation. We calculate the root mean square of EGG amplitude, median and dominant frequencies, magnitude of Power Spectral Density (PSD) at dominant frequency, crest factor of PSD, and spectral variation distribution along with newly introduced parameters: sample and spectral entropy, autocorrelation zero-crossing, and parameters derived from the Poincaré diagram of consecutive EGG samples. Results showed outstanding robustness of sample entropy with moderate robustness of autocorrelation zero-crossing, dominant frequency, and its median. Machine learning reached an accuracy of 88.2% and revealed sample entropy as one of the most relevant and robust parameters, while linear analysis highlighted spectral entropy, spectral variation distribution, and crest factor of PSD. This study clearly indicates the need for customized feature selection in noisy environments, as well as a complementary approach comprising machine learning and statistical analysis for efficient nausea detection.
