Utilization of machine learning to test the impact of cognitive processing and emotion recognition on the development of PTSD following trauma exposure.

BMC psychiatry
BACKGROUND: Though lifetime exposure to traumatic events is significant, only a minority of individuals develops symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Post-trauma alterations in neurocognitive and affective functioning are likely to refle...

Decoding attention control and selection in visual spatial attention.

Human brain mapping
Event-related potentials (ERPs) are used extensively to investigate the neural mechanisms of attention control and selection. The univariate ERP approach, however, has left important questions inadequately answered. We addressed two questions by appl...

Can robotic gait rehabilitation plus Virtual Reality affect cognitive and behavioural outcomes in patients with chronic stroke? A randomized controlled trial involving three different protocols.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: The rehabilitation of cognitive and behavioral abnormalities in individuals with stroke is essential for promoting patient's recovery and autonomy. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effects of robotic neurorehabilitation using Lokom...

Heterogeneity of executive function revealed by a functional random forest approach across ADHD and ASD.

NeuroImage. Clinical
BACKGROUND: Those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and/or attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit symptoms of hyperactivity and inattention, causing significant hardships for families and society. A potential mechanism involved in ...

Pragmatics, Theory of Mind and executive functions in schizophrenia: Disentangling the puzzle using machine learning.

PloS one
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...

A proof of concept machine learning analysis using multimodal neuroimaging and neurocognitive measures as predictive biomarker in bipolar disorder.

Asian journal of psychiatry
BACKGROUND: Concomitant use of complementary, multimodal imaging measures and neurocognitive measures is reported to have higher accuracy as a biomarker in Alzheimer's dementia. However, such an approach has not been examined to differentiate healthy...

Assessing various sensorimotor and cognitive functions in people with epilepsy is feasible with robotics.

Epilepsy & behavior : E&B
BACKGROUND: Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, along with comorbid cognitive and psychosocial impairment. Current gold standards of assessment can quantify cognitive and motor performance, but may not capt...

Control of speaking rate is achieved by switching between qualitatively distinct cognitive "gaits": Evidence from simulation.

Psychological review
That speakers can vary their speaking rate is evident, but how they accomplish this has hardly been studied. Consider this analogy: When walking, speed can be continuously increased, within limits, but to speed up further, humans must run. Are there ...

Evaluating the reliability of neurocognitive biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases across countries: A machine learning approach.

NeuroImage
Accurate early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases represents a growing challenge for current clinical practice. Promisingly, current tools can be complemented by computational decision-support methods to objectively analyze multidimensional meas...

Intelligent architectures for robotics: The merging of cognition and emotion.

Physics of life reviews
What is the place of emotion in intelligent robots? In the past two decades, researchers have advocated for the inclusion of some emotion-related components in the general information processing architecture of autonomous agents, say, for better comm...
