VR Sickness versus VR Presence: A Statistical Prediction Model

Abstract

Although it is well-known that the negative effects of VR sickness, and the desirable sense of presence are important determinants of a user's immersive VR experience, there remains a lack of definitive research outcomes to enable the creation of methods to predict and/or optimize the trade-offs between them. Most VR sickness assessment (VRSA) and VR presence assessment (VRPA) studies reported to date have utilized simple image patterns as probes, hence their results are difficult to apply to the highly diverse contents encountered in general, real-world VR environments. To help fill this void, we have constructed a large, dedicated VR sickness/presence (VR-SP) database, which contains 100 VR videos with associated human subjective ratings. Using this new resource, we developed a statistical model of spatio-temporal and rotational frame difference maps to predict VR sickness. We also designed an exceptional motion feature, which is expressed as the correlation between an instantaneous change feature and averaged temporal features. By adding additional features (visual activity, content features) to capture the sense of presence, we use the new data resource to explore the relationship between VRSA and VRPA. We also show the agg...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
