OBJECTIVE: Schizophrenia is associated with a severe impairment in the communicative-pragmatic domain. Recent research has tried to disentangle the relationship between communicative impairment and other domains usually impaired in schizophrenia, i.e...
In the first part of this series, we introduced the tools of Big Data, including Not Only Standard Query Language data warehouse, natural language processing (NLP), optical character recognition (OCR), and Internet of Things (IoT). There are nuances ...

AIM: The primary aim of this study was to examine the impact of age, gender and the stage of dementia on the results of an assistive technology intervention that make use of communication robots (com-robots). The intervention was designed to improve ...
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the effect of naturalistic visual cues on human avoidance behavior for a potential use in telerobotic user interfaces incorporating mixed-reality environments (e.g., augmented reality).
The service quality and system dependability of real-time communication networks strongly depends on the analysis of monitored data, to identify concrete problems and their causes. Many of these can be described by either their structural or temporal...
PURPOSE: This pilot before-after study investigated the possible effects of communicative robots, used with a sensing system supported by cloud robotics, in caring for elderly people.

In this paper, the l-l state estimation problem is addressed for a class of delayed artificial neural networks under high-rate communication channels with Round-Robin (RR) protocol. To estimate the state of the artificial neural networks, numerous se...
INTRODUCTION: Patients with cancer often receive care that is not aligned with their personal values and goals. Serious illness conversations (SICs) between clinicians and patients can help increase a patient's understanding of their prognosis, goals...
Coping with stress is crucial for a healthy lifestyle. In the past, a great deal of research has been conducted to use socially assistive robots as a therapy to alleviate stress and anxiety related problems. However, building a fully autonomous socia...
