Toward Postural State Classification in Immersive VR with Multimodal Data and Explainability Analysis
Ensuring a safe virtual reality (VR) experience requires systems that can predict and respond when users lose their balance. Although prior work has examined fall prediction and motion sickness, many approaches are regression-based and postural state classification remains less explored. This study compares machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models for classifying postural states in VR under visual perturbations. We used a multimodal dataset containing kinematic, electromyographic (EMG), and electrodermal activity (EDA) signals. The data were prepared for a binary task to distinguish balanced from imbalanced postural states, and participant-wise downsampling addressed class imba...
