Real-time Simultaneous Recurrent Neural Network Implementation for Robotmediated Intervention in Autism Spectrum Disorders
Description/Abstract/Artist Statement
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face challenges in social communication and interaction that may be helped through computer-based intervention. The Vision Lab at Old Dominion University has been developing a novel adaptive intervention paradigm targeting facial oddity biomarkers following the Lab's previous study of the spontaneous facial responses of children with ASD. As a part of this paradigm, the Simultaneous Recurrent Neural Network (SRN) developed by the Vision Lab is implemented in Python for real-time facial expression recognition in a novel, robotmediated intervention platform for children with ASD.
