GRASP: the group learning assessment platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate a prototype assessment technology designed to enable unobtrusive, real time assessment of group dynamics from speech. As part of that work, we describe a test bed for experimentation with alternative approaches for automatic processing of speech for this purpose. Furthermore, we present a specific successful technique for predicting activity levels and amount of overlapping speech in recordings of actual student group meetings recorded over a semester of a graduate engineering design project course.

Implementation of a Gaussian process-based machine learning grasp predictor
With the goal of advancing the state of automatic robotic grasping, we present a novel approach that combines machine learning techniques and physical validation on a robotic platform to develop a comprehensive grasp predictor. After collecting a large grasp sample set (522 grasps), we first conduct a statistical analysis of the predictive ability of grasp quality metrics that are commonly used...
متن کاملProtective role of vitamin-D on chronic stress induced-learning and memory deficits in rats
Introduction: Long-term stress disturbs HPA axis and increases glucocorticoids release, which disturbs neural plasticity in the hippocampus and may lead to learning and memory deficits. Noticeably, vitamin D plays a protective role in the nervous system and has receptors in the hippocampus. This behavioral study investigates the possible protective role of vitamin-D against the negative effects...
متن کاملVitamin D Deficiency Impairs Spatial Learning in Adult Rats
Background: Through its membrane and intracellular receptors, vitamin D regulates many vital functions in the body including its well known actions on musculoskeletal system. Growing body of evidences demonstrate that vitamin D undergoes some of behavioral aspects of neurocognition. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of food regimens without vitamin D or with a supplement of ...
متن کاملThe effects of chronic administration of pioglitazone on learning and memory in streptoztocin rat model of Alzheimer’s disease
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterized by abnormal protein accumulation, synaptic dysfunction, and cognitive impairment. Peroxisome proliferator-activated gamma receptors (PPARγ) play a crucial role in regulating insulin sensitivity and may serve as potential therapeutic targets for AD. Pioglitazone (Piog) as a PPARγ agonist reduce β-amyloid ...
