Towards Improving Human-Robot Interaction For Social Robots, Saad Khan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Autonomous robots interacting with humans in a social setting must consider the social-cultural environment when pursuing their objectives. Thus the social robot must perceive and understand the social cultural environment in order to be able to explain and predict the actions of its human interaction partners. This dissertation contributes to the emerging field of human-robot interaction for social robots in the following ways: 1. We used the social calculus technique based on culture sanctioned social metrics (CSSMs) to quantify, analyze and predict the behavior of the robot, human soldiers and the public perception in the Market Patrol peacekeeping scenario. 2. …
Electroencephalogram Based Causality Graph Analysis In Behavior Tasks Of Parkinson’S Disease Patients, Abdulaziz Saleh Almalaq
Electroencephalogram Based Causality Graph Analysis In Behavior Tasks Of Parkinson’S Disease Patients, Abdulaziz Saleh Almalaq
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Electroencephalographic (EEG) signals of the human brains represent electrical activities for a number of channels recorded over a the scalp. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the interactions and causality of different parts of a brain using EEG signals recorded during a performance subjects of verbal fluency tasks. Subjects who have Parkinson's Disease (PD) have difficulties with mental tasks, such as switching between one behavior task and another. The behavior tasks include phonemic fluency, semantic fluency, category semantic fluency and reading fluency. This method uses verbal generation skills, activating different Broca's areas of the Brodmann's areas (BA44 …
