Housing instability is a widespread phenomenon in the United States. In combination with other social determinants of health, housing instability affects children's overall health and development. Drawing on data from the 2022 National…
Speech processing techniques are useful for analyzing speech and language development in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), who are often varied and delayed in acquiring these skills. Early identification and intervention are…
Clipping is a common nonlinear distortion that occurs whenever the input or output of an audio system exceeds the supported range. This phenomenon undermines not only the perception of speech quality but also downstream processes utilizing…
Context: Test-driven development (TDD) is an agile software development approach that has been widely claimed to improve software quality. However, the extent to which TDD improves quality appears to be largely dependent upon the…
Background: Psychedelic drugs facilitate profound changes in consciousness and have potential to provide insights into the nature of human mental processes and their relation to brain physiology. Yet published scientific literature reflects…
New interactive physical-digital play technologies are shaping the way children plan. These technologies refer to digital play technologies that engage children in analogue forms of behaviour, either alone or with others. Current…
In the attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) study, children are prescribed different stimulant medications. The height measurements are recorded longitudinally along with the medication time. Differences among the patients are…
Social visual behavior, as a type of non-verbal communication, plays a central role in studying social cognitive processes in interactive and complex settings of autism therapy interventions. However, for social visual behavior analytics in…

Differences in gait patterns of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and typically-developing (TD) peers are visible to the eye, but quantifications of those differences outside of the gait laboratory have been elusive. In this…
PhD students report a higher prevalence of mental illness symptoms than highly educated individuals in the general population. This situation presents a serious problem for universities. Thus, the knowledge about this phenomenon is of great…
Electroencephalography (EEG)-based attention disorder research seeks to understand brain activity patterns associated with attention. Previous studies have mainly focused on identifying brain regions involved in cognitive processes or…
Eye movements have been widely investigated to study the atypical visual attention in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The majority of these studies have been focused on limited eye movement features by statistical comparisons between ASD…
Mental disorder populations exhibit pronounced heterogeneity -- that is, the significant differences between samples -- poses a significant challenge to the definition of positive pairs in contrastive learning. To address this, we propose a…
