孤独症谱系障碍儿童情绪表达能力干预系统研制

大量研究表明,通过干预孤独症谱系障碍(Autism Spectrum Disorder,ASD)儿童情绪能力,可以提高其移情能力从而改善核心症状--社交交往障碍。随着ASD儿童人数逐年上升,对干预的需求日益增大。目前国内外对于ASD儿童情绪能力的系统干预研究较少,主要研究均集中在表情识别这一层面。本文结合视频分析,自动表情识别算法,Flash技术,设计交互式虚拟场景游戏,研发一个面向ASD儿童的情绪能力干预的系统。该系统可以训练儿童的表情识别能力,还可以训练儿童对表情的模仿和表达,具有实用性,方便推广。

A large number of studies have indicated that intervening the emotion ability of children with autism spectrumdisorders (ASD) can improve their ability of empathy and their core symptoms - social handicap. With the increase of the number of ASDchildren, the need for intervention is increasing. But there are few intervention systems. which mainly focused on emotion recognition.
