International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communication Networks December 20, 2025 Swati Singh, Laxmidhar Behera, Suvendu Samanta
Objective measures of cognitive load are essential for understanding how the brain and body respond to demanding tasks and how meditation modulates these responses. This study examines nonlinear complexity features from electroencephalography (EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV) for distinguishing rest from task states and assessing meditation effects during cognitive tasks. Cognitive load...
