Background/Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to increased mental health issues, particularly among long-COVID patients, who experience persistent symptoms post-recovery, potentially leading to chronic conditions. The psychological impact of long-COVID is still largely unknown, but it may contribute to mental disorders like Post-Traumatic St...

Speech and Language Impairments (SLI) affect a large and heterogeneous group of people. With our work, we propose a novel, easy, and immediate detection tool to help diagnose people who suffer from SLI using speech audio signals, along with a new dataset containing English speakers affected by SLI. In this work, we experiment with feature extractio...

The application of Riemannian geometry in the decoding of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) has swiftly garnered attention because of its straightforwardness, precision, and resilience, along with its aptitude for transfer learning, which has been demonstrated through significant achievements in global BCI competitions. This paper presents a compreh...

This study presents a comprehensive exploration of EEG-based motor imagery classification using advanced deep learning architectures. Focusing on six distinct motor imagery classes, we investigate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN), CNN with Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM), and CNN with Bidirectional LSTM (CNN-BILSTM) models....

The COVID-19 emergency has exposed the fragility of many Health Care Systems around the world. Two major critical factors have been related to the management of critical care accesses and the availability of healthcare operators. COVID-like diseases are generally transmitted by airborne pathogens that grant a high contagion rate and rapidity. Unfor...

Introduction The primary objective of this research is to examine acrophobia, a widely prevalent and highly severe phobia characterized by an overwhelming dread of heights, which has a substantial impact on a significant proportion of individuals worldwide. The objective of our study was to develop a real-time and precise instrument for evaluating...

For this work, a preliminary study proposed virtual interfaces for remote psychotherapy and psychology practices. This study aimed to verify the efficacy of such approaches in obtaining results comparable to in-presence psychotherapy, when the therapist is physically present in the room. In particular, we implemented several joint machine-learning...

Eye-tracking systems have emerged as valuable tools in various research fields, including psychology, medicine, marketing, car safety, and advertising. However, the high costs of the necessary specialized hardware prevent the widespread adoption of these systems. Appearance-based gaze estimation techniques offer a cost-effective alternative that ca...

Nowadays most of the streets, squares and buildings are monitored by a large number of surveillance cameras. Nevertheless, these cameras are used only to record scenes to be analyzed after crimes or thefts, and not to prevent violent actions in an automatic way. In few cases there may be a guard who checks the videos manually in real-time, but it i...

In many developed cities around the world, vehicle sharing is becoming an increasingly popular form of green transportation. While such services are associated with lower emissions and easier mobility, their management poses a significant challenge. In this paper, we examine a dataset collected in Barcelona during the months of august and september...

Human–robot interactions require the ability of the system to determine if the user is paying attention. However, to train such systems, massive amounts of data are required. In this study, we addressed the issue of data scarcity by constructing a large dataset (containing ~120,000 photographs) for the attention detection task. Then, by using this...

Human activity recognition systems from static images or video sequences are becoming more and more present in our life. Most computer vision applications such as human-computer interaction, virtual reality, public security, smart home monitoring, or autonomous robotics, to name a few, highly rely on human activity recognition. Of course, basic hum...

This century has seen several outbreaks of epidemics caused by a common sub-family of coronaviruses such as the responsible for COVID-19 outbreak. The most ominous variants have developed a peculiar viral mechanisms that allows the virus to directly attack the pulmonary tissues often causing a set of dangerous symptoms. It made quite evident that w...

Psychological tests generally provide an evaluation scale to evaluate whether or not the subject manifests some traits. Such kind of tests are generally used for attitude evaluation, personal selection, educational and rehabilitation purposes, as well as for the diagnosis of cognitive disorders. The use of test and other questions-based diagnostic...

Stress and anxiety are part of the human mental process which is often unavoidably yield by circumstances and situations such as waiting for a flight at the airport gate, hanging around before an exam, or while in an hospital waiting room. In this work we devise a decision system for a robotic aroma diffusion device designed to lessen stress and an...
