The atypical face scanning patterns in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been repeatedly discovered by previous research. present study examined whether their could be potentially useful to identify children ASD adopting the machine learning algorithm for classification purpose. Particularly, we applied method analyze an eye movement dataset from a recognition task [Yi et al., 2016], classify and without ASD. We evaluated performance of our model terms its accuracy,...
Social robots have been increasingly involved in our daily lives and provide a new environment for children's growth. The current study aimed to examine how children with without Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) learned complex social rules from robot through distrust deception games. Twenty ASD between the ages of 5–8 20 typically-developing (TD) peers whose age IQ were matched participated tasks along an interview about their perception human-likeness robot. results demonstrated that: 1)...
Writing an essay is a very important skill for students to master, but difficult task them overcome. It particularly true English as Second Language (ESL) in China. would be useful if could receive timely and effective feedback about their writing. Automatic generation challenging task, which requires understanding the relationship between text features of feedback. In this study, we first analyzed 1,290 teacher comments on 327 Englishmajor annotated seven aspects writing, including grammar,...
We propose an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) prediction system based on machine learning techniques. Our work features the novel development and application of methods over traditional ASD evaluation protocols. Specifically, we are interested in discovering latent patterns that possibly indicate symptom underneath observations eye movement. A group subjects (either or non-ASD) shown with a set aligned human face images, gaze locations each image recorded sequentially. An image-level feature...
Ground walking in humans is typically stable, symmetrical, characterized by smooth heel‐to‐toe ground contact. Previous studies on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) identified various gait abnormalities. However, they produced inconsistent findings, particularly for the occurrence of toe and symmetry between feet, owing to their reliance retrospective reports, visual analysis videos, or kinematic gait. The present study examined functions ASD using plantar pressure that quantified...
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder ( ASD ) are known to process faces atypically. However, there has been considerable controversy regarding whether individuals also scan differently from typical adults. Here we compared individuals' face‐scanning patterns those of typically developing TD controls and intellectually disabled ID but non‐ the use an eye tracker multiple approaches analyze eye‐tracking data. First, analyzed movement data a traditional approach, measuring fixation...
Silks are widely used biomaterials, but there still weaknesses in their mechanical properties. Here we report a method for improving the silk fiber properties by genetic disruption of ionic environment formation. An anterior gland (ASG) specific promoter was identified and overexpressing ion-transporting protein ASG silkworm. After isolation transgenic silkworms, found that metal ion content, conformation fibers changed accordingly. Notably, endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase decreased...
Robots and virtual reality are gaining popularity in the intervention of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). To shed light on children’s attitudes towards robots characters reality, this study aims to examine whether ASD show uncanny valley effect. We varied realism facial appearance by morphing a cartoon face into human face, induced perceptual mismatch enlarging eyes, which has previously been shown as an effective method induce effect adults. Children typically developing (TD)...
Abstract Autistic children tend to show divergent social information processing, and controversies exist regarding the mechanisms underlying this processing. In article, we summarize categorize current theories evidence related hypo‐ hyperarousal accounts of processing in autism. The hypo‐arousal account proposes reduced motivation or sensitivity process is supported by behavioral, eye‐tracking, neuroimaging studies. Recent has challenged account, highlighting role eye gaze interpreting...
The aim of this work is to propose an automatic sleep stage classification technique electroencephalogram's signals (EEG) using Hilbert-Huang transform. EEG are analyzed with the transform, instantaneous frequency physical meaning obtained; energy-frequency distribution was used as features parameters for each stage; Ultimately nearest neighbor method pattern complete classifying stage. According experimental results 560 samples EEG, average accuracy rate achieved 81.7%. In a word, transform...
This paper presents a hybrid brain-computer interface (BCI) control strategy, the goal of which is to expand functions conventional motor imagery or P300 potential based BCI in virtual environment. The strategy utilizes devices and related sensorimotor rhythms navigate world. two electroencephalography (EEG) patterns serve as source signals for different their corresponding system states, state switch achieved sequential manner. In current system, imagination left/right hand movement was...
Abstract Well‐designed nanomaterials with favorable photothermal performance are beneficial for exploring fascinating and prospective applications. Herein the facile effective way is reported to enhance properties of gold nanorods (GNRs) through immobilizing tailored organic dyes around GNRs. Benefitting from combination plasmonic thermalization nonradiative relaxation, modified GNRs exhibit a temperature increase >100 °C under 638 nm laser irradiation in film state, which double that...
ABSTRACT This study investigated the activation of thematic and taxonomic relations during online lexical‐semantic processing in autistic children using an eye‐tracking competition task. Thirty‐six preschool‐aged 35 age‐, gender‐, verbal‐IQ‐matched neurotypical (NT) viewed arrays containing a target object, thematically related competitor, taxonomically unrelated distractor while hearing word. Results revealed three key findings. First, both groups demonstrated lexical processing, with...
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit a reduced duration of eye contact compared typically developing (TD) individuals. This has been theorized to be strategy relieve discomfort elicited by direct (Tanaka & Sung, 2016). Looking at threatening facial expressions may elicit more and consequently avoidance in ASD individuals than looking nonthreatening expressions. We explored whether children is modulated the social threat level emotional In this study, 2- 5-year-old without...
Abstract Diminished social motivation is hypothesized to explain abnormal face scanning pattern in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), especially reduced eye‐looking time ASDs than typically developing (TD) people. Here, we tested an alternative explanation that children ASD may use a compensatory strategy avoid direct eye contact by processing the eyes through peripheral vision. We compared patterns of and without two conditions: clear condition, was completely visible; blur...
Depression is a common mental disorder that seriously affects patients' social function and daily life. Its accurate diagnosis remains big challenge in depression treatment. In this study, we used electroencephalography (EEG) functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measured the whole brain EEG signals forehead hemodynamic from 25 patients 30 healthy subjects during resting state. On one hand, explored network properties, found clustering coefficient local efficiency of delta theta...
