{"pk":28247,"title":"Creating an affordable ,effective, adaptive &amp; personalized attention tasks for children with developmental disorders.","subtitle":null,"abstract":"The main challenge in studying cognition &amp; designing effective tasks for children with learning disorders is creatingpersonalized &amp; adaptive tasks in line with the current abilities &amp; mood of the child. The current study confronts thischallenge by testing a new paradigm to access the current state of mind and adapting the tasks based on the current mood&amp; abilities of the child. Children were given chess puzzles with various levels of difficulty (from just identifying thepieces, legal moves and eventually even capturing pieces with depth=1). while the children were performing the tasks thepupil-metric data (for cognitive load), facial expressions and the head pose were used to gauge the current-state and adaptthe puzzles accordingly. Further development of dynamic feedback and providing rewards for looking at the right squaresare also underway. custom software with off the shelf web-cameras were used as the current solutions in the market areprohibitively expensive for testing on large scale.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Abstracts-Posters","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6kz2c7vf","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Amarnath","middle_name":"","last_name":"Dasaka","name_suffix":"","institution":"International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad","department":""},{"first_name":"Bapiraju","middle_name":"","last_name":"Surampudi","name_suffix":"","institution":"International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2018-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/28247/galley/17906/download/"}]}
