Multi-Robot Interactive Therapy for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder /

By Ali ,Sara . . 139p. , Robot-Assisted Therapies (RAT) is an emerging field and has shown promising results. Recently, one of the prominent applications of robots is assistive therapy is for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Autism Spectrum Disorder is a set of neurodevelopment disorder affecting 7.5 million people around the world. Children with ASD lack social and communication skills which affects their ability in schools as well as in community. Recently, humanoid robots are used for the treatment of children with autism spectrum disorder to improve the development of communicational, behavioral, motor movements, joint attention, and physical behaviors. These interactive interventions that use robots for children with ASD, is one of the favorable tools for improving the behavior of children. In particular, the area of robotics is helping a lot in the treatment of ASD as the robot acts as a mediator as well as measures the response of an autistic child. However, the research aiming that the treatment of children with autism is limited, these therapies introduced by robots are successful in establishing basic communication skills. This research has proposed a novel mathematical model for an adaptive therapy of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder called Multi-robot-mediated Intervention System (MRIS). Three different therapies related to improvement in joint attention and imitation skills, effective human-human interaction and comparison of effective stimulus are introduced under this mathematical model. This research aims to introduce multi-sensory data that provides the quantitative support for improvement in social skills of children with autism, replacing the current techniques of measuring the improvement from physically observing the ASD child and with video analysis. Besides ensuring the accuracy in results, this method also introduces consistency as robots are immune to fatigue, unlike humans. The effectiveness of the model has been validated using cognitive brain state of the children with Electroencephalogram (EEG) neuroheadsets. Moreover, the effectiveness of the results has been validated using statistical analysis and the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS). 30cm.

Therapeutic Potential of Light Flicker for Schizophrenia - A Comparative Study

By Ihsan ,Faryal. . 93p. ; , Schizophrenia is a serious neuropsychiatric condition that affects cognition, perception, and behavior. Current pharmacological treatments are successful in treating symptoms but can have serious adverse effects, especially in susceptible populations such as children and the elderly. These negative consequences, which range from metabolic problems to cognitive impairment, underline the critical need for alternate, non-invasive therapeutic techniques. One promising approach is neuromodulation by gamma entrainment with sensory stimulation, which uses an external stimulus to restore broken neuronal synchronization. This study looks at the combined effects of Clozapine and light flicker therapy in a ketamine-induced schizophrenia mouse model, with the hypothesis that their synergistic action will lead to improved recovery. Mice were classified into five groups: control, diseased, Clozapine-treated, light flicker-treated, and combination therapy. Behavioral examinations, such as the open field test, elevated plus maze, forced swim test, tail suspension test, novel object recognition, and Y-maze, demonstrated that combination therapy improved cognitive and affective deficiencies the most significantly. Histological analysis with hematoxylin and eosin staining of the cortex and hippocampus (CA1 and CA3) revealed severe neuronal disorganization in the diseased group, partial restoration in the individual treatment groups, and near-control level preservation in the combination therapy group. RT-PCR analysis using Pvalb and BDNF primers indicated abnormalities in PV interneurons and neuroplasticity markers, which corroborated the histological and behavioral findings. Our approach to schizophrenia combines neuroscience and psychology. Restoring gamma oscillations with light flicker improves PV interneuron function, BDNF production, and cognitive stability. This neuronal synchronization minimizes ego fragmentation, improves self perception, and promotes cognitive integration for a more comprehensive treatment. 30cm..
