We present the design of an online social skills development interface for teenagers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The interface is intended to enable private conversation practice anywhere, anytime using a web-browser. Users…
Recent studies have revealed that using social robots can accelerate the learning process of several skills in areas where autistic children typically show deficits. However, most early research studies conducted interactions via free play.…
Conventionally, evaluation for the diagnosis of Autism spectrum disorder is done by a trained specialist through questionnaire-based formal assessments and by observation of behavioral cues under various settings to capture the early…
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic mental and behavioral disorder that interferes with everyday activities and has three core symptoms: inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. To help in reducing the effects…
Since the strong comorbid similarity in NDDs, such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, can interfere with the accurate diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), identifying unknown classes is extremely crucial and challenging…
Machine learning (ML) has advanced quickly, particularly throughout the area of health care. The diagnosis of neurodevelopment problems using ML is a very important area of healthcare. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is one of the…
In human-to-computer interaction, facial animation in synchrony with affective speech can deliver more naturalistic conversational agents. In this paper, we present a two-stage deep learning approach for affective speech driven facial shape…
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) frequently exhibit comorbid anxiety, which contributes to impairment and requires treatment. Therefore, it is critical to investigate co-occurring autism and anxiety with functional imaging tools…
This paper focuses on the use of emotion recognition techniques to assist psychologists in performing children's therapy through remotely robot operated sessions. In the field of psychology, the use of agent-mediated therapy is growing…
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental syndrome. Early diagnosis and precise treatment are essential for ASD patients. Although researchers have built many analytical models, there has been limited progress in…
