Voice-Controlled Intelligent Personal Assistants to Support Aging in Place.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Many older adults wish to age in place, and voice-controlled intelligent personal assistants (VIPAs; eg, Amazon Echo and Google Home) potentially could support unmet home needs. No prior studies have researched the real-world u...

The Bot Will See You Now: A History and Review of Interactive Computerized Mental Health Programs.

The Psychiatric clinics of North America
The goal of automating complex human activities dates to antiquity. The mental health field has also made use of advances in technology to assist patients in need. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the study of agents that receive percepts from the env...

Latticed Channel Model of Touchable Communication Over Capillary Microcirculation Network.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
Recent progress on bioresorbable and bio-compatible miniature systems provides prospects for developing novel nanorobots operating inside the human body. These nanoscale systems are expected to dissolve in vivo and cause no side effect after completi...

Obstacle effects on electrocommunication with applications to object detection of underwater robots.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Some fish species communicate electrically (termed electrocommunication) in turbid waters where other communication modalities fail. Inspired by this biological phenomenon, we have developed an artificial electrocommunication system for underwater ro...

How Prefrail Older People Living Alone Perceive Information and Communications Technology and What They Would Ask a Robot for: Qualitative Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: In the last decade, the family system has changed significantly. Although in the past, older people used to live with their children, nowadays, they cannot always depend on assistance of their relatives. Many older people wish to remain a...

Development and Evaluation of ClientBot: Patient-Like Conversational Agent to Train Basic Counseling Skills.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Training therapists is both expensive and time-consuming. Degree-based training can require tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours of expert instruction. Counseling skills practice often involves role-plays, standardized patie...

Incorporating Conversational Strategies in a Social Robot to Interact with People with Dementia.

Dementia and geriatric cognitive disorders
BACKGROUND: Socially assistive robots (SARs) have the potential to assist nonpharmacological interventions based on verbal communication to support the care of persons with dementia (PwDs). However, establishing verbal communication with a PwD is cha...

Paperwork.

Health communication
Healthcare today provides an especially rich context for the intertwined transformation of work and the technologies of work, which need to be understood in tandem. Advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, the internet of things, and computatio...

Antenna selection for multiple-input multiple-output systems based on deep convolutional neural networks.

PloS one
Antenna selection in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems has attracted increasing attention due to the challenge of keeping a balance between communication performance and computational complexity. Recently, deep learning based methods have...

Assisting radiologists with reporting urgent findings to referring physicians: A machine learning approach to identify cases for prompt communication.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Radiologists are expected to expediently communicate critical and unexpected findings to referring clinicians to prevent delayed diagnosis and treatment of patients. However, competing demands such as heavy workload along with lack of administrative ...
