The effectiveness of autism therapy
This document summarizes a research paper on the effectiveness of therapeutic design for autistic children in today's community. It discusses three examples of therapeutic design: gesture-based technology using the Xbox Kinect, environmental design using an autism design index, and future robot technology using the NAO robot. The paper finds that these examples of therapeutic design have proven effective - the Kinect is successfully used in autism care centers, the design index guides architects and caregivers, and robots help autistic children communicate. The implication is that effective design solutions are being created and developed to potentially change autism therapy.
The use of technology in psychology
This document discusses the use of technology in psychology. It describes how virtual reality, computers, the internet and devices that integrate persuasive and ubiquitous computing can be used as therapeutic tools. Virtual reality can improve exposure therapy techniques. Computerized treatments have been shown to be effective for various disorders. The internet provides flexibility but also risks to privacy and confidentiality. The document also discusses experiences using these technologies in the Dominican Republic and Spain.
Tech&autism-test sample
Assistive technologies have been used for over 20 years to help children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Modern assistive devices like tablets, smartphones, PCs and interactive games can create virtual worlds for children to safely explore and boost cognitive skills. These technologies allow behaviors to be closely tracked and individual progress measured. While some argue that excessive technology may weaken social skills, studies show children with ASD exposed to assistive technology treatments demonstrate improved communication and imitation. Such technologies provide a stress-free environment for treatment at a lower cost than traditional therapies.
AcTo Dementia: Accessible Touchscreen Apps for People Living with Dementia
The need for meaningful activity is reported as a priority for people with dementia both living at home and in care services. Technology is commonly used to facilitate activity and entertainment in the general population, yet its application in dementia care is mostly to provide an ‘assistive’ function, often where the person with dementia is not the intended user. Devices featuring touchscreen interfaces, such as tablet computers, are considered to be intuitive and there is growing evidence that people with dementia are able to use them. The challenge is in identifying suitable and accessible applications (apps) on these devices. Original development is one option, but the benefit to using existing software is that there is greater choice and availability and any risk of stigmatisation is avoided. The AcTo Dementia project is focussed on (1) identifying key features within touchscreen apps that increase their accessibility for people with dementia; (2) developing a shareable framework that can be used to find existing ‘dementia-friendly’ touchscreen apps; (3) working with app developers to improve the accessibility of existing apps for people with dementia; and (4) creating a website to share app recommendations and support guides for people with dementia or people in a supportive role (www.actodementia.com).

“It is estimated that 8 million Americans have an eating disorder – seven million women and

2013, anorexia is a highly known issue. It is no secret that anorexia is on the rise in society.
Since statistics have increasingly soared through the last decade, more people are becoming

disease that can be passed down through generations (Grice 39). On the other hand, Sharlene
Nagy Hesse- Biber, a professor of Women’s Studies at Boston College, argues: “Anorexia is a

how to label anorexia ultimately showing that “anorexia nervosa” should be categorized as a
type of an eating disorder, not as a disease.

A Technological Approach
“Few individuals in the world are untouched by some form of technology; they wear it
on their wrists, carry it in their pockets or purses, go to sleep and wake up to it, and may even
depend on it to keep their heart beating at the right pace” (Odom et al. 3805). There is nothing
that technology cannot do. So why not use this technology to create more opportunities for
people with disabilities? The topic of disabilities has been around for hundreds of years ranging
further back than the Middle Ages where people with disabilities were pushed away from
society and thought to have demons inside of them and that the only option was to kill them
(Mackelprang 5). Since then, studies have continued to develop new ideas, the biggest
progression being in 1990 with the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (an anti-
discrimination law based on disability). This opened windows for people with disabilities to get
the help they need, doctors to develop new treatment plans, and researchers to develop new
technology. The biggest obstacle regarding the use of technology is the cost, however the overall
outcomes from it grossly outweighs the initial price for the devices. Also, an important thought
to keep in mind is that not every child or adult is capable of properly handling devices
(Darewych 100). It is clear that recent developments in technology have drastically increased the
health and wellness of people with cognitive disabilities through empowerment, stimulation, and
community access.

Ambient Intelligence is a future vision where technology is integrated into people's environments and can understand and respond to their needs and behaviors. This report examines how Ambient Intelligence could impact healthcare. It identifies five levels of increasing intelligence - from embedding sensors to anticipating needs. Interviews with healthcare stakeholders explored opportunities and challenges around personalized care, like who has access to health data and for what purposes. Collective agreements are needed to ensure Ambient Intelligence enhances rather than threatens patient interests. The report aims to start a debate on these issues.
Screening Children with Autism by Developing Smart Toy Cars
Autistic spectrum disorders are categorized under developmental disorders and lead into a wide range of symptoms in the patients. They are referred to as autism spectrum, since the intensity and the extent of their symptoms vary person to person based on disorder's intensity. In this study, a smart toy car was developed for screening children with autism. In making the toy car, field-programmable gate array was exploited which is an integrated circuit capable of high-speed planning. Appropriate selected features were the ones that identified repetitive and stereotypical motions in movement, which are normally comprised of 9 features. Finally, in the most appropriate conditions, the classification of aforementioned features was carried out using support vector machine algorithm with polynomial kernel with an order of 5. Autistic children screening was carried out with an accuracy of 100%
Let Me Aut
This document proposes an app called LetMeAut to guide autistic people safely along routes by providing location-based directions synchronized with Galileo satellite signals. The app would monitor biometric data and stress levels, allow customization of tasks and routes, and recognize activities using multi-sensor machine learning. The goal is to increase autonomy for individuals with autism spectrum disorder by helping them independently navigate daily tasks and the environment.
Computer vision in healthcare
This document discusses how artificial intelligence could benefit the healthcare industry. It describes how AI can be used to examine large amounts of medical data like X-rays and scans, help arrive at diagnoses by analyzing past patient data, and minimize minor diagnostic errors. Specific AI techniques discussed include support vector machines for classification and regression, natural language processing to analyze medical texts and reports, neural networks to identify relationships between variables and outcomes, and convolutional neural networks for medical imaging analysis. Examples are given of how these techniques have achieved high accuracy in detecting lung tumors and cerebral aneurysms.

Screening Children with Autism by Developing Smart Toy Cars
Autistic spectrum disorders are categorized under developmental disorders and lead into a wide range of symptoms in the patients. They are referred to as autism spectrum, since the intensity and the extent of their symptoms vary person to person based on disorder's intensity. In this study, a smart toy car was developed for screening children with autism. In making the toy car, field-programmable gate array was exploited which is an integrated circuit capable of high-speed planning. Appropriate selected features were the ones that identified repetitive and stereotypical motions in movement, which are normally comprised of 9 features. Finally, in the most appropriate conditions, the classification of aforementioned features was carried out using support vector machine algorithm with polynomial kernel with an order of 5. Autistic children screening was carried out with an accuracy of 100%

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
