Using assistive robots to promote inclusive education.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: This paper describes the development and test of physical and virtual integrated augmentative manipulation and communication assistive technologies (IAMCATs) that enable children with motor and speech impairments to manipulate educational it...

Neural Representations of Physics Concepts.

Psychological science
We used functional MRI (fMRI) to assess neural representations of physics concepts (momentum, energy, etc.) in juniors, seniors, and graduate students majoring in physics or engineering. Our goal was to identify the underlying neural dimensions of th...

Cognitive Test Scores in UK Biobank: Data Reduction in 480,416 Participants and Longitudinal Stability in 20,346 Participants.

PloS one
UK Biobank includes 502,649 middle- and older-aged adults from the general population who have undergone detailed phenotypic assessment. The majority of participants completed tests of cognitive functioning, and on average four years later a sub-grou...

Evaluation of a Home Biomonitoring Autonomous Mobile Robot.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Increasing population age demands more services in healthcare domain. It has been shown that mobile robots could be a potential solution to home biomonitoring for the elderly. Through our previous studies, a mobile robot system that is able to track ...

Network-based classification of ADHD patients using discriminative subnetwork selection and graph kernel PCA.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
BACKGROUND: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent behavioral disorders in childhood and adolescence. Recently, network-based diagnosis of ADHD has attracted great attentions due to the fact that ADHD disease is ...

A decision model to predict the risk of the first fall onset.

Experimental gerontology
BACKGROUND: Miscellaneous features from various domains are accepted to be associated with the risk of falling in the elderly. However, only few studies have focused on establishing clinical tools to predict the risk of the first fall onset. A model ...

Persisting Hypocalcemia After Surgical Parathyroidectomy: The Differential Effectiveness of Calcium Citrate Versus Calcium Carbonate With Acid Suppression.

The American journal of the medical sciences
The effectiveness of oral calcium (Ca) may be contingent on a patient׳s factors beyond compliance, such as proton-pump inhibitor use and the choice of calcium supplements. A 32-year-old Hispanic male with end-stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysi...

Novel risk index for the identification of age-related macular degeneration using radon transform and DWT features.

Computers in biology and medicine
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) affects the central vision of aged people. It can be diagnosed due to the presence of drusen, Geographic Atrophy (GA) and Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) in the fundus images. It is labor intensive and time-c...

Comparison of Boiling and Robotics Automation Method in DNA Extraction for Metagenomic Sequencing of Human Oral Microbes.

PloS one
The rapid improvement of next-generation sequencing performance now enables us to analyze huge sample sets with more than ten thousand specimens. However, DNA extraction can still be a limiting step in such metagenomic approaches. In this study, we a...
