Diagnostic Challenge in Frontal Variant Alzheimer's Disease With Low Amyloid‐β PET Retention
ABSTRACT Diagnosing frontal variant Alzheimer's disease (fvAD) is difficult and could be even more difficult when amyloid‐beta (Aβ) PET retention is low. A 63‐year‐old woman presenting with a 3‐year history of apathy and memory impairment showed executive dysfunction, memory impairment, and severe bilateral frontotemporal atrophy on MRI.

Speech Analysis for Automatic Mania Assessment in Bipolar Disorder [PDF]
Bipolar disorder is a mental disorder that causes periods of manic and depressive episodes. In this work, we classify recordings from Bipolar Disorder corpus that contain 7 different tasks, into hypomania, mania, and remission classes using only speech features. We perform our experiments on splitted tasks from the interviews.

Arigatō: Effects of Adaptive Guidance on Engagement and Performance in Augmented Reality Learning Environments [PDF]
Experiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience or more specifically "learning through reflection on doing". In this paper, we propose a simulation of these experiences, in Augmented Reality (AR), addressing the problem of language learning. Such systems provide an excellent setting to support "adaptive guidance", in a digital
