A Systematic Review of Research on Robot-Assisted Therapy for Children with Autism.

Sensors (Basel)

January 2022

Computer Science Department, College of Computer and Information Sciences, Imam Muhammad bin Saud University, Riyadh 11432, Saudi Arabia.

Recent studies have shown that children with autism may be interested in playing with an interactive robot. Moreover, the robot can engage these children in ways that demonstrate essential aspects of human interaction, guiding them in therapeutic sessions to practice more complex forms of interaction found in social human-to-human interactions. We review published articles on robot-assisted autism therapy (RAAT) to understand the trends in research on this type of therapy for children with autism and to provide practitioners and researchers with insights and possible future directions in the field.

The assessment of clients with speech disorders presents challenges for speech-language pathologists. For example, having a reliable way of measuring the severity of the case, determining which remedial program is aligned with a patient's needs, and measuring of treatment processes. There is potential for brain-computer interface (BCI) applications to enhance speech therapy sessions by providing objective insights and real-time visualization of brain activity during the sessions.

Simulation of radioelement volatility during the vitrification of radioactive wastes by arc plasma.

J Hazard Mater

April 2009

College of Sciences, Department of Physics, Al-Imam Muhammad bin Saud University, Riyadh 11623, Saudi Arabia.

A computer model is used to simulate the volatility of some radioelements cesium ((137)Cs), cobalt ((60)Co), and ruthenium ((106)Ru) during the radioactive wastes vitrification by thermal plasma. This model is based on the calculation of system composition using the free enthalpy minimization method, coupled with the equation of mass transfer at the reactional interface. The model enables the determination of the effects of various parameters (e.
