Attention-Based Applications in Extended Reality to Support Autistic Users: A Systematic Review [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2022, 2022 With the rising prevalence of autism diagnoses, it is essential for research to understand how to leverage technology to support the diverse nature of autistic traits. While traditional interventions focused on technology for medical cure and rehabilitation, recent research aims to understand how technology can accommodate each unique situation in an ...

Computational analyses of linguistic features with schizophrenic and autistic traits along with formal thought disorders [PDF]
Proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Multimodal
Interaction (2023), 2023 [See full abstract in the pdf] Formal Thought Disorder (FTD), which is a group of symptoms in cognition that affects language and thought, can be observed through language. FTD is seen across such developmental or psychiatric disorders as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Schizophrenia, and its related Schizotypal Personality Disorder (SPD). This paper

Unveiling Technorelief: Enhancing Neurodiverse Collaboration with Media Capabilities [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 As the workforce settles into flexible work arrangements, researchers have focused on the collaborative and psychological consequences of the shift. While nearly a fifth of the world's population is estimated to be neurodivergent, the implications of remote collaboration on the cognitive, sensory, and socio-affective experiences of autistic workers are

Design Your Life: User-Initiated Design of Technology to Support Independent Living of Young Autistic Adults [PDF]
, 2021 This paper describes the development of and first experiences with 'Design Your Life': a novel method aimed at user-initiated design of technologies supporting young autistic adults in independent living. A conceptual, phenomenological background resulting in four core principles is described. Taking a practice-oriented Research-through-Design approach,

An Evaluation of Machine Learning Approaches for Early Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurological disease characterized by difficulties with social interaction, communication, and repetitive activities. While its primary origin lies in genetics, early detection is crucial, and leveraging machine learning offers a promising avenue for a faster and more cost-effective diagnosis.

Social Assistive Robotics for Autistic Children [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This paper introduces the project Social Assistive Robotics for Autistic Children aimed at using robotic therapy for autism. The goal of the project is testing autistic children's interactions with the social robot NAO. In particular the robot will support the operators (psychologists, educators, speech therapists etc.) in their work.

Supervised Multi-topology Network Cross-diffusion for Population-driven Brain Network Atlas Estimation [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Estimating a representative and discriminative brain network atlas (BNA) is a nascent research field in mapping a population of brain networks in health and disease. Although limited, existing BNA estimation methods have several limitations. First, they primarily rely on a similarity network diffusion and fusion technique, which only considers node ...

Web-based Search: How Do Animated User Interface Elements Affect Autistic and Non-Autistic Users? [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Many websites and other user interfaces include animated elements, particularly for advertisements. However, these can have a negative impact on users, with some cohorts, such as autistic users, being more affected. In our mixed methods study on the effect of irrelevant animations on usability we observed the effect on search activities.

A New Local Score Based Method Applied to Behavior-divergent Quail Lines Sequenced in Pools Precisely Detects Selection Signatures on Genes Related to Autism [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Detecting genomic footprints of selection is an important step in the understanding of evolution. Accounting for linkage disequilibrium in genome scans allows increasing the detection power, but haplotype-based methods require individual genotypes and are not applicable on pool-sequenced samples. We propose to take advantage of the local score approach
