Ai-Powered Wearable Iot Devices for Mental Health Assessment, Stress Prediction and Personalised Health Care Recommendation Systems
Main Article Content
Abstract
The growing burden of psychological stress and the limitations of episodic self-reporting have increased interest in wearable Internet of Things (IoT) systems for continuous, context-aware mental well-being support. This paper proposes an AI-powered wearable IoT framework that combines physiological sensing, secure edge-to-cloud communication, personalised machine learning and recommendation logic to support stress assessment and early identification of elevated stress patterns. The framework integrates photoplethysmography-derived heart rate and heart-rate variability, electrodermal activity, skin temperature, motion and sleep-related indicators. A personal-baseline mechanism is incorporated to reduce reliance on population-level thresholds, while contextual filtering is used to distinguish physiological arousal associated with physical activity from patterns potentially associated with psychological stress. A synthetic evaluation scenario is presented to demonstrate the proposed reporting and comparison methodology. The results compare logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest and a multimodal personalised model using discrimination, sensitivity, specificity and calibration metrics. These values are simulated for methodological demonstration and are not measurements from participants or a deployed device. The paper further discusses recommendation safety, privacy, fairness, usability and the distinction between wellness support and clinical diagnosis. The proposed system is intended as an assistive monitoring framework, not a substitute for validated mental-health assessment or professional care.
