Abstract
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators publish new report on ar tificial intelligence.According to news reporting out of Padova,Italy,by News Rx editors,research stated,"Assessing executive functions in individuals with disorders or clinical conditions can be challenging,as they may lack the abilit ies needed for conventional test formats." Funders for this research include Italian Ministry of Research And University.The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from University of Padua:"The use of more personalized test versions,such as adaptive assessments,might be helpful in evaluating individuals with specific needs.This paper introduces PsycAssist,a web-based artificial intelligence system designed for neuropsycho logical adaptive assessment and training.PsycAssist is a highly flexible and sc alable system based on procedural knowledge space theory and may be used potenti ally with many types of tests.We present the architecture and adaptive assessme nt engine of PsycAssist and the two currently available tests:Adap-ToL,an adap tive version of the Tower of London-like test to assess planning skills,and Mat riKS,a Raven-like test to evaluate fluid intelligence.Finally,we describe the results of an investigation of the usability of Adap-ToL and MatriKS:the evalu ators perceived these tools as appropriate and well-suited for their intended pu rposes,and the test-takers perceived the assessment as a positive experience."
