Characterization of the relationship between semantic and structural language features in psychiatric diagnosis

2016 50th Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers, 2016

Psychiatry describes speech symptoms that are indicative of disorganized thought, but measuring them is not easy. With natural language processing tools, it is possible to quantify psychiatric symptoms. Graph representations of word trajectories and semantic incoherence have independently been shown to predict the Schizophrenia diagnosis. Both analyses assess thought organization through speech, but the relationship between them is unknown. To ...


Hierarchical Chunking during Learning of Visuomotor Sequences

The 2006 IEEE International Joint Conference on Neural Network Proceedings, 2006

It is well known that learning a sequential skill involves chaining a number of primitive actions together into chunks. We describe three different experiments using an explicit visuomotor sequence learning paradigm called the m times n task. The m times n task enables hierarchical learning of sequences by presenting m elements of the sequence at a time (called the set). ...


Classification of event-related potential waveforms with parallel principal component neural networks

Proceedings of 17th International Conference of the Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 1995

A new artificial neural network (ANN) architecture for classification of event-related potential (ERP) waveforms is proposed. The new architecture is called the parallel principal component neural network (PPCNN). The use of PPCNN is discussed in terms of classification of ERP data obtained from chronic schizophrenic patients and from normal volunteers.


Reversible data hiding based on interleaving max-min difference histogram

2009 Joint Conferences on Pervasive Computing (JCPC), 2009

This work proposed a reversible data hiding algorithm that is based on the interleaving max-min difference histogram. The method divides the cover image into non-overlapping identical blocks. In each block, the maximum or minimum pixel is selected to calculate absolute differences between the gray level value of the selected pixel and that of the other pixels. Then, these differences are ...

  • Characterization of the relationship between semantic and structural language features in psychiatric diagnosis

    Psychiatry describes speech symptoms that are indicative of disorganized thought, but measuring them is not easy. With natural language processing tools, it is possible to quantify psychiatric symptoms. Graph representations of word trajectories and semantic incoherence have independently been shown to predict the Schizophrenia diagnosis. Both analyses assess thought organization through speech, but the relationship between them is unknown. To fill this gap, here we characterize the relationship between structural and semantic features of free verbal reports from 60 patients and matched controls. Graph connectedness is inversely correlated to semantic incoherence and both explain 54% of negative symptoms variance.

  • Hierarchical Chunking during Learning of Visuomotor Sequences

    It is well known that learning a sequential skill involves chaining a number of primitive actions together into chunks. We describe three different experiments using an explicit visuomotor sequence learning paradigm called the m times n task. The m times n task enables hierarchical learning of sequences by presenting m elements of the sequence at a time (called the set). The entire sequence to be learned is composed of n such sets and is called a hyperset. In the first experiment, we showed the chunking phenomenon while learning a sequence as opposed to following randomly generated visual cues. We further explored the nature of chunking across sets using complex sequences in the second experiment. Finally, we investigated effector dependence of the chunking patterns in the third experiment. Our results point out the facilitating factors for chunk formation in visuomotor sequence learning.

  • Reversible data hiding based on interleaving max-min difference histogram

    This work proposed a reversible data hiding algorithm that is based on the interleaving max-min difference histogram. The method divides the cover image into non-overlapping identical blocks. In each block, the maximum or minimum pixel is selected to calculate absolute differences between the gray level value of the selected pixel and that of the other pixels. Then, these differences are used to generate a histogram and the histogram shifting method is adopted to embed data. The change of the pixel gray level upon shifting and embedding obtained using the max difference is contrary to that obtained using the min difference. The method of interleaving uses the max difference and the min difference to counteract the change in the gray levels of some pixels. The total of the changed gray level values is thus reduced. Therefore, the PSNR value can be increased and the quality of the stego image improved. Experimental results reveal that the proposed method yields a higher embedding capacity than that of the median difference histogram.

  • Performance evaluation of Algebraic Reconstruction Techniques for the mapping of cortex current distribution activity by inversion of simulated event related potentials

    The performance of Algebraic Reconstruction Technique (ART) algorithms for the inversion of simulated Event-Related (Evoked) Potentials is investigated. Using reference dipole multipole and extended distributions, we examine the behavior of the algorithms by checking a set of critical parameters related to the algorithm's self-consistency, measuring the covergence accuracy and speed, the quality of resolution and the resistance to various levels of noise corruption.

  • Development of a virtual supermarket shopping task for cognitive remediation of memory and executive functions in schizophrenia

    Impairment of executive and memory functions was repeatedly observed in various neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia. As the pharmacological treatment does not influence the deficit sufficiently, the significance of cognitive remediation increases in importance. The presented study introduces the virtual Supermarket Shopping Task (vSST), a novel method aimed at memory and executive functions, designed in ecologically valid environment. The results of the first pilot study showed significant difference in the performance between the males and females. In the second pilot, the difference between males and females was eliminated subsequently to adding other items besides groceries to the shopping list. The debriefing of participants pointed out the importance of elected encoding strategy. Considering adjustable parameters that allow us to increase the task difficulty and complexity, vSST represents potentially well-adjustable remediation method.

  • Reconstruction of simulated functional brain images using generalised matrix inverses and algebraic reconstruction techniques

    It is widely believed that Event-Related Potentials measured at the scalp include useful information about the underlying neural mechanisms related to stimuli processing, attention and memory. For this information to be extracted the inverse problem must be solved in order to compute the intracranial sources responsible for the externally measured potential quantities. Much work has been dedicated to localized dipole computation [1] whereas a new technique has been proposed for computing images of distributed cortex activity, producing interesting clinical results in the field of Psychiatry [2,3]. The purpose of the present work was to study comparatively the performance of iterative techniques known as Algebraic Reconstruction Techniques and of the Generalized Matrix Inversion Technique [4] in inverting simulated ERP data.

  • Using Pulse Waves for Self-Cognition

    In this research, we obtain various indicators by analyzing pulse waves, which are then used to self-cognize one's own psychological state and characteristics. Pulse wave measurement is simple and safe. What's more, we can get three indicators by analyzing the measured data: the largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE), autonomic nerve balance (ANB), and sample entropy (SampEn). Using these three indicators, we conducted research on a number of factors, including the discrimination of depression, the psychological state analysis of Alzheimer's disease, the effects of Parkinson's disease on indicators, and the change of mental state after long-term study. However, in order to utilize this technology more scientifically, we need to assemble a more complete database and make more systematic measurements.
