EVALUATION APPARATUS AND EVALUATION METHOD

An evaluation apparatus comprises a brain wave acquiring unit that acquires a brain wave signal from each of a plurality of subjects; an intensity data generating unit that generates intensity data that represents an intensity of a signal component in a predetermined frequency band or a relation between intensities of signal components in a plurality of frequency bands; a correlation data generating unit that acquires pairs of two subjects for all combinations, calculates a cross-correlation coefficient for the intensity data at each point in time for the respective pairs, and generates, correlation data in the time-series form; and an output unit that generates evaluation data that numerically represents a degree of synchronization of brain wave fluctuation based on the correlation data.

Brain Activation Matching

A system matching psychophysiological measures of individuals with other individuals or groups of individuals using data resulting from spontaneous brain activity and presentation of stimuli to include external stimuli, internal stimuli, sensory stimuli and neurocognitive task. Templates of distinguishing features and characteristics of collected psychophysiological measures are created for individuals and aggregations of psychophysiological measures for groups of individuals sharing common attributes. In one embodiment of the system, a template is generated for individuals and groups of high performing individuals representative of target vocations. Similarity of an individual's template to the template of a high-performing group implies similarity in cognitive function, psychophysical processes, and neurophysiological processes of the individual and the high-performing group. Psychophysiological measures used to identify candidates well suited to perform a particular function of interest overcomes limitations of subjective interpretation of pencil and paper tests of prior art personnel selection systems.

Ranking device, ranking method, and program

A device, a system, a method, and a program are realized which are capable of predicting the order of the feeling and the preference of a subject to products which are the research objects, for marketing research and others. The images of a plurality of research objects are presented a plurality of times as visual stimuli in order to measure the brain wave. A brain wave data of an event related electrical potential for the research objects which the subject has selected as a target immediately after the stimulus presentation, is processed by a linear discriminant analysis to quantitatively represent with a single index, in order to rank the research objects.

Smart eye system for Visuomotor dysfunction diagnosis and its operant conditioning
20170296048 · 2017-10-19 ·

Disclosed herein is a system that uses an eye tracker for diagnosing and facilitating rehabilitation therapy of a patient suffering from disability. The system creates a human machine interface (HMI) that integrates various low cost biosensors and artificial sensors for conducting rehabilitation therapy. The system combines spinal and supra-spinal feedback of the patient with the operant conditioning to facilitate visuomotor balance therapy (VBT), thereby reducing fall risk in disability survivors. The operant conditioning setup for shaping of visuomotor learning to bring about new behavior or to modify a certain aspect of an existing behavior is used for rehabilitation therapy that includes a behaviour response apparatus, a reward delivery module, a stimulus delivery system, and a behaviour control system. The system can also be extended to the patient's home for providing telerehabilitation therapy.

Methods and Systems for Obtaining, Analyzing, and Generating Vision Performance Data and Modifying Media Based on the Vision Performance Data

The present specification describes methods and systems for modifying a media, such as Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, or Mixed Reality (VR/AR/MxR) media based on a vision profile and a target application. In embodiments of the specification, a Sensory Data Exchange (SDE) is created that enables identification of various vision profiles for users and user groups. The SDE may be utilized to modify one or more media in accordance with each type of user and/or user group.

Knowledge, interest and experience discovery by psychophysiologic response to external stimulation
11666267 · 2023-06-06 · ·

Methods and systems are disclosed for discovery of knowledge, interest and experience of individuals indicated by measured psychophysiologic response (e.g., electroencephalograph) to sensible stimuli (e.g., images). Stimuli are selected to explore targeted topics described in various levels of detail and sub-categories organized as hierarchal trees. The degree of psychophysiologic response to stimuli associated with sub-categories of topics in the hierarchal tree guides selection of additional stimuli to systematically explore hierarchal tree nodes, levels and branches to discover the extent of knowledge, interest or experience related to the targeted topic. A system enabling these methods provides archival and search of hierarchal trees associated with topics of interest, target and non-target stimuli, stimulus dataset generation, editing and presentation, psychophysiologic data collection and processing via local and remote resources, evoked response detection, characterization and scoring, and association of indications of knowledge, interest or experience with regards to facets of the targeted topic.
