BACKGROUND: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is being extensively explored as a potential primary screening tool for major depressive disorder (MDD) because of its portability, cost-effectiveness, and low susceptibility to motion artifac...
This paper introduces a novel approach to enhance the classification accuracy of hemodynamic response function (HRF) signals acquired through functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). Leveraging a semi-supervised learning (SSL) framework alongsi...

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) based on model neurons that communicate via continuous signals have been widely used to study how cortical neural circuits perform cognitive tasks. Training such networks to perform tasks that require information main...
BACKGROUND: Due to the importance and the consequences of anxiety, the goals of the current study are brain mapping, biomarker identification and the use of an assessment method for diagnosis of anxiety during emotional face in preschool children.
Previous studies suggest that the combination of robot-assisted training with other concurrent tasks may promote the functional recovery and improvement better than the single task. It is well-established that robot-assisted rehabilitation training ...
Higher cortical areas carry a wide range of sensory, cognitive and motor signals mixed in heterogeneous responses of single neurons tuned to multiple task variables. Dimensionality reduction methods that rely on correlations between neural activity a...
BACKGROUND: Individuals with anxious-depressed (AD) symptoms have more severe mood disorders and cognitive impairment than those with non-anxious depression (NAD) symptoms. Therefore, it is important to clarify the underlying neurophysiology of these...
In natural and artificial neural networks, modularity and distributed structure afford complementary but competing benefits. The former allows for hierarchical representations that can flexibly recombine modules to address novel problems, whereas the...
With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) speech synthesis technology, its application in personalized voice services and its potential role in emotional comfort have become research focal points. This study aims to explore the impact of A...
