PS-C01-12: EARLY DETECTION OF DEMENTIA USING AI-BASED EYE-TRACKING TECHNOLOGY

Responding to the rapid rise in the number of dementia cases is becoming increasingly urgent. A great deal of evidence indicates that early diagnosis and timely intervention lead to beneficial outcomes. Vascular risk factors such as hypertension can be a potential target for dementia prevention as controlling blood pressure can reduce the risk of developing dementia later in life. A diagnostic method for the easy and accurate detection of mild symptoms of dementia is necessary to provide early intervention. Neuropsychological tests, such as the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), are commonly used as a screening tool to detect cognitive impairment. These traditional neuropsychological tests are valid and reliable; however, they are not sufficiently simple and rapid as routine screening tools. Here, we developed a newly developed eye tracking-based cognitive assessment tool to detect cognitive impairment. The gaze points of the subjects were recorded by the eye-tracking device while a series of short (178 s) task movies are displayed on the monitor, and the cognitive scores are determined from the gaze plots data. Eighty participants, including 27 cognitively healthy controls (HC), 26 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 27 patients with dementia, were assessed by both an eye tracking-based and neuropsychological tests. A strong positive correlation was observed between the MMSE and eye tracking-based cognitive scores (r = 0.74, p < 0.00001, Spearman rank test). The eye tracking-based cognitive scores also correlated well with other neuropsychological tests such as FAB and ADAS-cog, and they also demonstrated a good diagnostic performance in detecting MCI. Eye tracking-based cognitive assessment provides a new platform for a quantitative scoring and sensitive detection of cognitive impairment. Furthermore, we developed an easy-to-administer cognitive assessment application for smart devices such as iPad. This will facilitate early intervention, leading to the prevention of dementia. We are currently conducting a medical device clinical trial in Japan and preparing for the global extension of this service.

Digital storytelling: A proposed creative therapeutic intervention for bereaved families

Digital storytelling is a qualitative visual research method that is becoming increasingly popular. It is based on collaboratively creating short digital movies conveying participants’ stories which can also be presented to the public, and represents not only a research method but also a beneficial therapeutic tool for both adults and children. Within the context of psychotherapy, digital storytelling has helped individuals to connect not only at an intrapersonal level, but also at an interpersonal level, and has been a valuable part of the healing process. Based on these promising findings, this article presents a proposed creative intervention for bereaved families based on digital storytelling together with a dance-movement activity. The steps are outlined, and the goal of this intervention is to help the bereaved to build resilience, to process their grief and to heal together as a community. The implications for practice are then discussed.

Building blocks of suspense: subjective and physiological effects of narrative content and film music

The current study explores the role of narrative content and non-diegetic music, as well as their interplay in the creation of film suspense. In a between-subjects design, three audience groups watched either the full version (audio–video) of a suspenseful short movie (Love Field) or a video-only version or listened to the audio track only. Audience responses were assessed with a combination of continuous response measurement (CRM) and psychophysiological measures, comprising heart rate (i.e., inter-beat interval, IBI), pulse volume amplitude (PVA), and skin conductance level (SCL). Frame-by-frame content coding was performed to identify distinct plot segments and musical moods (tense vs. relaxing) and mark the critical visual and auditory events that directed the audience’s inferences about the nature of the plot and elicited specific outcome expectations. Results showed that continuous self-report data and objective physiological measures were largely dissociated, suggesting different processing modalities. Tense music alone induced feelings of suspense (CRM) even in the absence of any clues about the story content. Overall, the audio-only version led to the highest arousal levels, as indicated by SCL and PVA, while the video-only version led to the lowest arousal levels. IBI data revealed short-term heart rate deceleration responses to salient narrative clues that could be interpreted in terms of heightened attention and cognitive resource allocation. Results are discussed in light of a multidimensional framework of tension and suspense and a terminological differentiation of both concepts.

Finally, the writer recommends readers to watch and retrieve the da'wah messages contained in the Nilep Short Movie.

Virtual Reality in Space Technology Education

The simplification of space science and technology for students K–12 is a challenging task for educators. Virtual reality and augmented reality are educational techniques that introduce the concept of educational games. Moreover, those techniques have a stunning effect on students. This work presents the utilization of virtual reality models to teach students about the satellite types, satellite subsystems, the satellite assembly and integration process, watching the rocket launch carrying the satellite and observing the satellite in its orbit in virtual space laboratories. A 10-min mission in virtual laboratories will effectively improve the learning outcomes. In addition to the VR feature, a set of activities and short movies are considered to be beneficial for use by students to enrich the teaching results. Finally, the VR model results confirmed that the students’ knowledge about the space technology cycle is boosted.

Retrospective behavioral sampling (RBS): A method to effectively track the cognitive fluctuations driven by naturalistic stimulation.

Everyday experiences are dynamic, driving fluctuations across simultaneous cognitive processes. A key challenge in the study of naturalistic cognition is to disentangle the complexity of these dynamic processes, without altering the natural experience itself. Retrospective behavioral sampling (RBS) is a novel approach to model the cognitive fluctuations corresponding to the time-course of naturalistic stimulation, across a variety of cognitive dimensions. We tested the effectiveness and reliability of RBS in a web-based experiment, in which 53 participants viewed short movies and listened to a story, followed by retrospective reporting. Participants recalled their experience of 55 discrete events from the stimuli, rating their quality of memory, magnitude of surprise, intensity of negative and positive emotions, perceived importance, reflectivity state, and mental time travel. In addition, a subset of the original cohort re-rated their memory of events in a follow-up questionnaire. Results show highly replicable fluctuation patterns across distinct cognitive dimensions, thereby revealing a stimulus-driven experience that is substantially shared among individuals. Remarkably, memory ratings more than a week after stimulation resulted in an almost identical time-course of memorability as measured immediately following stimulation. In addition, idiosyncratic response patterns were preserved across different stimuli, indicating that RBS characterizes individual differences that are stimulus invariant. The current findings highlight the potential of RBS as a powerful tool for measuring dynamic processes of naturalistic cognition. We discuss the promising approach of matching RBS fluctuations with dynamic processes measured via other testing modalities, such as neuroimaging, to study the neural manifestations of naturalistic cognitive processing.

Intracranial human recordings reveal association between neural activity and perceived intensity for the pain of others in the insula.

Based on neuroimaging data, the insula is considered important for people to empathize with the pain of others. Here, we present intracranial electroencephalographic (iEEG) recordings and single-cell recordings from the human insula while seven epilepsy patients rated the intensity of a woman's painful experiences seen in short movie clips. Pain had to be deduced from seeing facial expressions or a hand being slapped by a belt. We found activity in the broadband 20-190 Hz range correlated with the trial-by-trial perceived intensity in the insula for both types of stimuli. Within the insula, some locations had activity correlating with perceived intensity for our facial expressions but not for our hand stimuli, others only for our hand but not our face stimuli, and others for both. The timing of responses to the sight of the hand being hit is best explained by kinematic information; that for our facial expressions, by shape information. Comparing the broadband activity in the iEEG signal with spiking activity from a small number of neurons and an fMRI experiment with similar stimuli revealed a consistent spatial organization, with stronger associations with intensity more anteriorly, while viewing the hand being slapped.

Язык в ожидании Годо: Барт о пьесе Беккета

Roland Barthes in his review “The Adult «Godot»” in 1954 claims that the language itself of Becketts’ play Waiting for Godot at last makes the audience take it as comic and understandable, though at the premiere just 17 months before the same text has been condemned as highbrow. The article examines several Barthes’ works (The Third Meaning, S/Z, Camera Lucida), Becketts’ short movie The Film (1964) as well as Stéphane Mallarmé’s article The Impressionists and Edouard Manet (1876) in order to clear up the key question: how the modernity painting method of “cutting down” the picture on canvas could help to analyse those language phenomenon Barthes discovered.

Modulation of Driver's Emotional States by Manipulating In-Vehicle Environment: Validation With Biosignals Recorded in An Actual Car Environment

A driver's emotional state can affect driving performance. According to the studies on the driving performance based on the circumplex (arousal-valence) model of affect, negative emotions such as anger and sadness can severely hinder safe driving. In this study, we developed a system to modulate drivers’ emotions to designated emotional states by manipulating in-vehicle environments, such as ambient lighting, background music, scent, ventilation, and rear curtains. The proposed system, named the “mood-modulator” system, consists of four different modes, designed to induce different emotional states. The feasibility of the “mood-modulator” system was evaluated using electroencephalogram (EEG) and photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals recorded from 48 drivers in an actual car environment. In the experiments, negative emotions were induced for each participant using short movie clips. Then, one of the four modes (different in-vehicle environments) was executed, during which both EEG and PPG data were acquired. We quantitatively evaluated whether each mode could effectively induce targeted emotional valence using machine learning classifier models, individually constructed from EEG data recorded during calibration sessions. The modulation of emotional arousal by each mode was also assessed using heart rate and respiration rate extracted from the PPG data. Our results demonstrated that the four modes could effectively increase the participant's emotional valence and modulate emotional arousal state to the intended direction. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to quantitatively evaluate a system that modulates a driver's emotional state using biosignals recorded in an actual car.

Fluid Viscosity Measurement by Means of Secondary Flow in a Curved Channel.

This article presents a new approach to determining the viscosity of Newtonian fluid. The approach is based on the analysis of the secondary Dean flow in a curved channel. The study of the flow patterns of water and aqueous solutions of glycerin in a microfluidic chip with a U-microchannel was carried out. The advantages of a microfluidic viscometer based on a secondary Dean flow are its simplicity, quickness, and high accuracy in determining the viscosity coefficient of a liquid. A viscosity image in a short movie represents fluid properties. It is revealed that the viscosity coefficient can be determined by the dependence of the recirculation angle of the secondary Dean flow. The article provides a correlation between the Dean number and the flow recirculation angle. The results of the field experiment, presented in the article, correlate with the data obtained using computational fluid dynamics and allow for selecting parameters to create microfluidic viscometers with a U-shaped microchannel.

Ethnographic movies as artistic memory An ethnosemotic study for the Jewish character in the Iraqi short movie (Venice of the East)

Usually, cinematic research and critical studies combine documentary movie and ethnography, as the movie that deals with reality and reformulates it in an artistic way, and refers to the ethnographic movie as an artistic memory that aims to reveal an aspect of the tragedy of minorities, and presents an aspect of their culture and traditions. “Ethnographic movies enable us to draw attention to the tragedy of persecuted minorities, and thanks to ethnographic movie it has become possible for thousands of viewers in the West to learn about marginal and distant cultures,” says Jean-Paul Colin. This study came to put forward the hypothesis that the ethnographic movie is not limited to documentaries, but the narrative movie, despite being fictional, can be an ethnographic movie, and an artistic memory that indicates what the other suffers from, in case a number of conditions are met. Our interest in the ethnographic movie came from the fact that it represents a visual memory documenting a people separated from others, whether by religion, nationalism or cultural customs and traditions. The ideal model for discussing and proving this hypothesis was the Iraqi short movie (Venice of the East) by addressing the character of the Iraqi Jew, that character that was absent from Iraqi cinematic works, especially movies after the year 2003, which witnessed a greater boom in the production of cinematic movies, especially short ones, but it attended the short movie, subject of this research. The movie (Venice of the East 2018) by screenwriter Mustafa Sattar Al-Rikabi and the director Bahaa Al-Kazemi, which we chose for technical reasons, due to the quality of the cinematic language that the director used to express what he wants in this movie, whose only hero is the character of the Jewish man who does not have a name, whose role was played by the Iraqi actor (Sami Kaftan), as well as many of the signs contained in the visual text that provide signals that may be conscious or unconscious of the situation of this segment of Iraqis, and this will become clear in the course of the research, and other non-technical reasons we have mentioned above from the fact that the Iraqi fictional cinema did not address this segment of the Iraqi citizens. We proved the hypothesis of the research in the first topic, which is a theoretical topic entitled (Ethnographic movie between documentary and fiction), in which we discussed two subjects: (The definition of the ethnographic movie) and (Can the feature movie be considered an ethnographic movie?!). The second topic, is applied and critical, in which we presented the research method (the ethnographic approach) followed by (a critical view of the movie), then we touched on (the customs of the Jewish community in the movie) and finally how it expressed all this through the signs contained in the cinematic language in which the movie was presented. We concluded the research with the most important findings. It is worth mentioning that this research is a founding research and a first study on the ethnographic movie and its importance lies in that, it presents for the first time the hypothesis that the feature movie can be ethnographic and proves this. This research was followed by a second unpublished study entitled (( Forced displacement of Jews and manifestations of return in the movie (Venice of the East)) .

Stepping on invisible land: on the importance of communicating the value of soils

Soils play fundamental roles in the functioning of the Earth's ecosystems. Despite numerous initiatives to protect soils, it continues to be generally perceived as dirt or, at best, the surface we walk on. To better understand soil perception by the public, we conducted a survey with 99 participants from Poland and Brazil. We applied opportunity sampling and conducted semi-structured interviews with 40 respondents from Poland and 30 from Brazil, and 29 unstructured interviews in Brazil. Most of the respondents (53%) of the semi-structured interviews associated soil with the surface where plants grow, while 27% said that it is the ground we step on. When asked about pro-environmental campaigns, none of the respondents pointed to soil-related initiatives. Most of the respondents (99%) claimed that there is a need to increase their knowledge about the importance of soils, mostly through education (30%). The majority of the respondents of the unstructured interviews in Brazil indicated provision services provided by soils and pointed to the need for youth engagement in soil communication, corroborating the results from the semi-structured interviews. To address this, we present the results on artistic workshops as an experimental model for teaching and dissemination. We present two short documentary movies reporting the results from unstructured interviews and artistic workshops that can be used as data gathering tools, teaching tools and for dissemination purposes. This is a novel approach to communicating with the relevant stakeholders to promote more sustainable resource management.

Tiktok Social Media Sentiment Analysis Using the Nave Bayes Classifier Algorithm

Social media is a computer application designed to make it simpler to communicate with others without having to do it face-to-face, as well as a tool for having fun and reducing feelings of isolation. Existing social media applications include games, music, and media for communicating with distant individuals, among others. These social media are utilized by parents, adolescents, and even young children. The application Tik-Tok is frequently used by children as a social networking platform. Tik-Tok has succeeded in grabbing the interest of youngsters, such that children are curious about creating short movies on the platform. Due to the fact that this application is used by children, the researcher seeks to use the Naïve Bayes Classifier Algorithm to recognize and differentiate unfavorable remarks on TikTok's social media. The rising number of negative remarks in the TikTok comments column can hinder the mental development of youngsters, and it is hoped that this algorithm would encourage users to post positive comments on this application. Based on the data gathering until the results of classification are obtained. There are 600 comments data randomly collected from TikTok users, gathered through the export comments website. After evaluating, the accuracy of the application of the Naïve Bayes Classifier algorithm in conducting sentiment analysis is 80% while the result of the AUC is 46%
