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...

The diagnosticity of psychophysiological signatures: Can we disentangle mental workload from acute stress with ECG and fNIRS?

International journal of psychophysiology : official journal of the International Organization of Psychophysiology
The ability to identify reliable and sensitive physiological signatures of psychological dimensions is key to developing intelligent adaptive systems that may in turn help to mitigate human error in complex operations. The challenge of this endeavor ...

Effects of robotic neurorehabilitation through lokomat plus virtual reality on cognitive function in patients with traumatic brain injury: A retrospective case-control study.

The International journal of neuroscience
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a clinical condition characterized by damage due to a mechanical physical event, which has a devastating impact on both the patient and his/her family. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of robotic n...

Computer- and Robot-Assisted Therapies to Aid Social and Intellectual Functioning of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience challenges with social interactions, a core feature of the disorder. Social skills therapy has been shown to be helpful. Over the past several years, computer-assisted...

A model of event knowledge.

Psychological review
Our knowledge of events and situations in the world plays a critical role in our ability to understand what is happening around us, to predict what might happen next, and to comprehend language. What has not been so clear is the form and structure of...
