Item response theory (IRT) models emerged to solve practical testing problems in large-scale cognitive achievement and aptitude assessment. Within the last decade, an explosion of IRT applications have occurred in the non-cognitive domain. In this report, I highlight the development, implementation, and results of a single project: Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information Systems (PROM...

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Digital technologies (DT) is proliferating a profound socio-technical transformation. Governments and AI scholarship have endorsed key principles but lack direction at the implementation level. Through systematic literature review 59 papers, this paper contributes to critical debate on ethical DTs beyond high-level principles. To our knowledge, first t...

We study joint rate control and resource allocation with a packet collision constraint that maximizes the total utility of secondary users in cognitive radio networks. We formulate and decouple the original optimization problem into separable subproblems and then develop an algorithm that converges to optimal rate control and resource allocation. The proposed algorithm can operate on different ...

This study aimed to assess the severity and specificity of cognitive impairments that affect individuals with deficit versus non-deficit schizophrenia. We compared 26 patients with the deficit subtype of schizophrenia (SZ-D) and 79 with non-deficit schizophrenia (SZ-ND) to 316 healthy adults (NC). All study participants completed a battery with 19 individual cognitive measures. After adjusting ...
