Determinants of Attitude to a Humanoid Social Robot in Care for Older Adults: A Post-Interaction Study.

Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research
BACKGROUND While there is a growing body of research examining opinions on social robots in elderly care, there is a lack of comprehensive studies investigating the underlying factors influencing these opinions. The Godspeed Questionnaire Series (GQS...

Frailty Identification Using Heart Rate Dynamics: A Deep Learning Approach.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Previous research showed that frailty can influence autonomic nervous system and consequently heart rate response to physical activities, which can ultimately influence the homeostatic state among older adults. While most studies have focused on rest...

An Automated Planning Model for HRI: Use Cases on Social Assistive Robotics.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Using Automated Planning for the high level control of robotic architectures is becoming very popular thanks mainly to its capability to define the tasks to perform in a declarative way. However, classical planning tasks, even in its basic standard P...

An Artificial Neural Network Model for Assessing Frailty-Associated Factors in the Thai Population.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Frailty, one of the major public health problems in the elderly, can result from multiple etiologic factors including biological and physical changes in the body which contribute to the reduction in the function of multiple bodily systems. A diagnosi...

Development and validation of a robotic multifactorial fall-risk predictive model: A one-year prospective study in community-dwelling older adults.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Falls in the elderly are a major public health concern because of their high incidence, the involvement of many risk factors, the considerable post-fall morbidity and mortality, and the health-related and social costs. Given that many fal...

Predicting hospital admission for older emergency department patients: Insights from machine learning.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Emergency departments (ED) are a portal of entry into the hospital and are uniquely positioned to influence the health care trajectories of older adults seeking medical attention. Older adults present to the ED with distinct needs and com...

A social robot intervention on depression, loneliness, and quality of life for Taiwanese older adults in long-term care.

International psychogeriatrics
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of a social robot intervention on depression, loneliness, and quality of life of older adults in long-term care (LTC) and to explore participants' experiences and perceptions after the intervention.

Deep learning prediction of falls among nursing home residents with Alzheimer's disease.

Geriatrics & gerontology international
AIM: This study aimed to use a convolutional neural network (CNN) to investigate the associations between the time of falling and multiple complicating factors, including age, dementia severity, lower extremity strength and physical function, among n...
