Adaptive Prompting for Intelligent Wheelchairs

6 Cognitive impairments prevent older adults from using powered 7 wheelchairs due to safety concerns, thus reducing their mobility and 8 independence. An intelligent powered wheelchair is proposed to help 9 restore mobility, while ensuring safe navigation. Machine vision and 10 learning techniques are used to help prevent collisions with obstacles, as 11 well as provide navigation assistance th...

The COACH prompting system to assist older adults with dementia through handwashing: An efficacy study

BACKGROUND Many older adults with dementia require constant assistance from a caregiver when completing activities of daily living (ADL). This study examines the efficacy of a computerized device intended to assist people with dementia through ADL, while reducing caregiver burden. The device, called COACH, uses artificial intelligence to autonomously guide an older adult with dementia through t...

A Framework to Assist Acute Stroke Diagnosis

In this paper, we present a framework developed to assist and support treatment and diagnosis of acute stroke patients. We propose to substitute the current clinical study based on manual image editing and manual segmentation of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and perfusion weighted imaging (PWI) by an integrated framework with registration, segmentation, manipulation and visualization strateg...
