They had a small cohort of nine individuals working at a call center using skin conductance sensors to measure EDA. They used exponential smoothing and chose a smoothing factor, $\alpha$, of $0.8$ – it was unclear why this was chosen. They also elected to normalize the skin conductance signals on each individual between $0$ and $1$ to reduce variability between the cohort members.
