Researchers have introduced WARM-VR, a new dataset for recognizing emotional states within virtual reality environments using wearable sensors. The dataset comprises physiological data from 31 participants, including ECG, BVP, EDA, and skin temperature, collected during VR experiences designed to induce relaxation after stress. Initial benchmarks using machine learning models like CNNs and Transformers show promising results for affect recognition, with specific models achieving F1-scores around 0.63 for valence and 0.64 for arousal.
