The reported project aims to confirm whether a tactile glove fingertips' stimulator is effective for a brain-computer interface (BCI) paradigm using somatosensory event potential (SEP) responses with possible attentional modulation. The proposed simplified stimulator device is presented in detail together with psychophysical and EEG BCI experiment protocols. Results supporting the proposed simple...
Visual impairments define a wide spectrum of disabilities that vary in severity, from the need to wear glasses, to permanent loss of vision or blindness. This paper discusses the process undertaken in creating two simulators, one which emulates partially-sighted visual impairment and another focused on full-blindness. In order to create the simulators, extensive research was conducted surrounding...
In this paper we will discuss on how electronically linked Brain to Computer Interface(BCI) and Computer to Brain Interface(CBI) can be used to develop Brain to Brain Interface(BBI). In this system, non-invasive technology is deployed to achieve conscious Brain to Brain(B2B) communication. At BCI site, data is transmitted using ElectroEncephaloGraphy (EEG) a non-invasive method to record electrical...
Dyslexia is one of the most common Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs) in the world. Students with dyslexia have poor fluency in reading, writing, spelling, speech, short-term memory, and also other related disorders. In addition emotion is recognised as important as the cognitive difficulty that affects dyslexia learning. Students with dyslexia often suffer emotions like frustration and low self-esteem...
During the past years, significant research has been done on computer aided celiac disease diagnosis based on endoscopic image data. Mostly the aim is to increase the final classification accuracies based on a certain endoscopic data set. In this work, we investigate the impact of different endoscopic devices as well as imaging modalities with distinct impact on the visual properties of the image...
This paper describes a dynamic technique for identifying learners learning styles based on their behavior in the learning environment influenced by literature approach. The technique was suggested based on VAK Learning Styles model and the behavioral patterns. First we defined the learning material features (contents, case studies, examples, exercises and assessments) and the behavioral patterns (staying...
The difference of perceived glare between two different working modes (i.e., computer work and reading/writing) caused by LEDs in office was investigated. Discomfort glare are evaluated in two aspects, the general glare and overhead glare. For general glare study, all the LED luminaires installed in the ceiling of the experimental room were switched on to realize a uniform lighting distribution like...
Based on the analysis of mathematical model of overhead crane, this research studys the control strategy of load's anti-swing and rapid locating by obtaining the angle of load with image sensor. Because of the sensor's image processing and transmission time, the angle signal arrived at controller is sampled and lags behind the current actual angle, affecting the effectiveness of the control strategy...
Human motor learning research suggests that contextual cues such as visual and/or auditory stimuli contribute to reduce motor interference between conflicting motor tasks. In this study, we investigate whether an olfactory stimulus is able to reduce the motor interference in a motor learning paradigm (ABA). As a result, we confirmed that the group with different olfactory condition for Task A and...
In this paper, a new algorithm for visualization of high-multidimensional data is described. The algorithm follows several steps. At first, centers representing several categories are selected, and Euclidean distances between these centers are calculated in a high-dimensional space. Then these centers are placed in a 2-dimensional space in such a way that distances in this 2-dimensional space are...
In order to solve the problem of shortage of workers in large hospitals, this study design a kind of short distance wireless communication system based on brain-computer-interface (BCI) technology, it chooses the ultra-low power MCU MSP430F5438 and nRF24L01 as the core, and it includes the design of Lab view platform, brain electrical simulator, nRF24L01 wireless transceiver system and voice prompts...
The number of maternal and infant mortality in Indonesia is high due to the lack of fetal monitoring. In addition, the number of Obstetrics and Gynecology is limited and it centralized in urban area. In order to resolve that problem, we have built fetal head monitoring system. In this work we examine Particle Swarm Optimization for Gaussian Elliptical Path in automatic fetal head approximation. Particle...
Public speaking is a non-trivial task since it is affected by how nonverbal behaviors are expressed. Practicing to deliver the appropriate expressions is difficult while they are mostly given subconsciously. This paper presents our empirical study on the nonverbal behaviors of presenters. Such information was used as the ground truth to develop an intelligent tutoring system. The system can capture...
The paper discusses the possibility of generation of a set of reusable educational components by means of paradigms of knowledge representation and management, based on contemporary concepts and tools in educational and informational technologies. Definitions of knowledge models such as ontology and characteristics of conception; model of knowledge specification and knowledge expressions by means...
Haptic devices are electro-mechanical tools controlled by computers that allow to recreate the sense of touch. They enhance the sense of interaction with virtual objects from purely visual to haptic and visual. One of its application areas is in training environments, where the users can interact with virtual objects to learn procedures or tasks. In this paper we describe the use of haptic devices...
The automated formation of the interactive task for the computer aided training means is studied in the article. This problem is of current importance since there is a necessity to create an instrumental tool that would give an opportunity to realize different types of the testing and training tasks on basis of the interactive technologies in the modern stage of the computer training system development...
This paper looks at the potential of information visualization for multi-device co-located synchronous collaboration. That is, the capability of interactive graphical user interfaces to support face-to-face collaboration with networked devices such as large displays with motion recognition and mobile touchscreen devices. This is done by first considering how information visualization can be developed...
This paper aims to highlight the conceptual model of MESE (Multimedia in Education for Special Education). MESE for mental retardation children is based on whole language theory, pedagogical approaches, and multisensory concept which are suitable for learning and teaching reading. The design and development approaches of MESE has been designed to improve reading through a curriculum and instructional...
Maintaining vertical position of an inverted pendulum is a simple balancing task, which is widely used to study human control behavior. Yet, much about this behavior remains poorly understood even in the context of simple virtual tasks. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the control behavior of human operators depends on the type of visual feedback from the controlled system. We...
