Social communication between virtual characters and children with autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Children with ASD have difficulty with social communication, particularly joint attention. Interaction in a virtual environment (VE) may be a means for both understanding these difficulties and addressing them.

Social Cognition in Children Born Preterm: A Perspective on Future Research Directions

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Preterm birth is a major risk factor for children’s development. It affects children’s cognitive and intellectual development and is related to impairments in IQ, executive functions, and well-being, with these problems persisting into adulthood.

Joint attention to mental content and the social origin of reasoning

open access: yesSynthese, 2019
Growing evidence indicates that our higher rational capacities depend on social interaction—that only through engaging with others do we acquire the ability to evaluate beliefs as true or false, or to reflect on and evaluate the reasons that support our ...

Active Learning of Joint Attention [PDF]

open access: yes2006 6th IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots, 2006
Joint attention is the skill of attending to the same object another person is looking at. The acquisition of this skill is crucial in children for the development of many social and communicative abilities, and has been proposed as a critical social capability for interactive robots. Although recent attempts to model the acquisition of this skill on a

Neuronal Oscillatory Signatures of Joint Attention and Intersubjectivity in Arrhythmic Coaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Hyper-brain studies analyze the brain activity of two or more individuals during some form of interaction. Several studies found signs of inter-subject brain activity coordination, such as power and phase synchronization or information flow.

Robot initiative in a team learning task increases the rhythm of interaction but not the perceived engagement

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2014
We hypothesize that the initiative of a robot during a collaborative task with a human can influence the pace of interaction, the human response to attention cues, and the perceived engagement.We propose an object learning experiment where the human ...

Deep Joint Entity Disambiguation with Local Neural Attention

open access: yes, 2017
We propose a novel deep learning model for joint document-level entity disambiguation, which leverages learned neural representations. Key components are entity embeddings, a neural attention mechanism over local context windows, and a differentiable ...

Dc and ac behaviour of a normal joint in a superconducting cable [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The application of joints which can be disassembled is studied within the framework of the development of high current (25 kA), high power (0.5 kW) cryogenic current supplies (flux pumps).1,2 The behaviour of a scale model with currents up to 5 kA will ...

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...
