Dyslexia is a complex reading disorder characterized by difficulties in accurate or fluent word recognition, poor spelling, and decoding abilities. These challenges are not due to intellectual, visual, or auditory deficits. The diagnosis of dyslexia is further complicated by symptom variability, influenced by cultural and personal factors.

Early diagnosis and treatment can reduce the symptoms of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children, but medical diagnosis is usually delayed. Hence, it is important to increase the efficiency of early diagnosis. Previous studies used behavioral and neuronal data during GO/NOGO task to help detect ADHD and the accuracy differed considerably from 53% to 92%, depending on the employed methods and the number of electroencephalogram (EEG) channels.

Time series data of motion trajectory accompanied with the interaction of VR system may contain important clues in regard to the assessment of motor function, however, clinical evaluation scales such as Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), and Test D'évaluation Des Membres Supérieurs Des Personnes Âgées (TEMPA) are highly depended in clinic. Further, there is not yet an assessment method that simultaneously consider motion trajectory and clinical evaluation scales.

Virtual reality (VR) is used to induce the drug-cue reactivity and significant EEG and ECG abnormalities were found in MUD patients. However, whether a link exists between EEG and ECG abnormalities in patients with MUD during exposure to drug cues remains unknown.

Virtual reality (VR) is used to induce the drug cue reactivity. Previous studies reported significant frequency-specific neuronal abnormalities in patients with MUD during VR induction of drug craving.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder. Though it is not yet curable or reversible, research has shown that clinical intervention or intensive cognitive training at an early stage may effectively delay the progress of the disease. As a result, screening populations with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or early AD via efficient, effective and low-cost cognitive assessments is important.

While there is methadone or buprenorphine harm-reduction treatment for heroin addicts, there is no drug treatment for addicts with methamphetamine use disorder (MUD). Recently, non-medication treatment, such as the cue-elicited craving method integrated with biofeedback, has been widely used.

Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder among children. Traditional assessment methods generally rely on behavioral rating scales (BRS) performed by clinicians, and sometimes parents or teachers. However, BRS assessment is time consuming, and the subjective ratings may lead to bias for the evaluation.
