Investigating the effect of transformer encoder architecture to improve the reliability of classroom observation ratings on high-inference discourse.

Behavior research methods
This study investigates the effect of transformer encoder architecture on the classification accuracy of high-inference discourse elements in classroom settings. Recognizing the importance of capturing nuanced interactions between students and teache...

Feature-based behavior coding for efficient exploratory analysis using pose estimation.

Behavior research methods
This paper introduces feature-based behavior coding (FBBC), an efficient method for exploratory analysis in behavioral research using pose estimation techniques. FBBC addresses the challenges of traditional behavioral coding methods, particularly in ...

Assessing autobiographical memory consistency: Machine and human approaches.

Behavior research methods
Memory is far from a stable representation of what we have encountered. Over time, we can forget, modify, and distort the details of our experiences. How autobiographical memory-the memories we have for our personal past-changes has important ramific...

LEyes: A lightweight framework for deep learning-based eye tracking using synthetic eye images.

Behavior research methods
Deep learning methods have significantly advanced the field of gaze estimation, yet the development of these algorithms is often hindered by a lack of appropriate publicly accessible training datasets. Moreover, models trained on the few available da...

The Animal-AI Environment: A virtual laboratory for comparative cognition and artificial intelligence research.

Behavior research methods
The Animal-AI Environment is a unique game-based research platform designed to facilitate collaboration between the artificial intelligence and comparative cognition research communities. In this paper, we present the latest version of the Animal-AI ...

EmoAtlas: An emotional network analyzer of texts that merges psychological lexicons, artificial intelligence, and network science.

Behavior research methods
We introduce EmoAtlas, a computational library/framework extracting emotions and syntactic/semantic word associations from texts. EmoAtlas combines interpretable artificial intelligence (AI) for syntactic parsing in 18 languages and psychologically v...

A modular machine learning tool for holistic and fine-grained behavioral analysis.

Behavior research methods
Artificial intelligence techniques offer promising avenues for exploring human body features from videos, yet no freely accessible tool has reliably provided holistic and fine-grained behavioral analyses to date. To address this, we developed a machi...

An adaptive testing item selection strategy via a deep reinforcement learning approach.

Behavior research methods
Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) aims to present items that statistically optimize the assessment process by considering the examinee's responses and estimated trait levels. Recent developments in reinforcement learning and deep neural networks pr...

SmartDetector: Automatic and vision-based approach to point-light display generation for human action perception.

Behavior research methods
Over the past four decades, point-light displays (PLD) have been integrated into psychology and psychophysics, providing a valuable means to probe human perceptual skills. Leveraging the inherent kinematic information and controllable display paramet...

An abbreviated Chinese dyslexia screening behavior checklist for primary school students using a machine learning approach.

Behavior research methods
To increase early identification and intervention of dyslexia, a prescreening instrument is critical to identifying children at risk. The present work sought to shorten and validate the 30-item Mandarin Dyslexia Screening Behavior Checklist for Prima...
