In this work, a method is presented for the continuous estimation of pain intensity based on fusion of bio-physiological and video features. The focus of the paper is to analyse which modalities and feature sets are suited best for the task of recognizing pain levels in a person-independent setting. A large set of features is extracted from the available bio-physiological channels (ECG, EMG and skin conductivity) and the video stream. Experimental validation demonstrates which modalities contribute the most to a robust prediction and the effects when combining them to improve the continuous estimation given unseen persons.
