Building a Question-Answering Chatbot using Forum Data in the Semantic Space

Pierre Dillenbourg, Marc Laperrouza, Khalil Mrini

We build a conversational agent which knowledge base is an online forum for parents of autistic children. We collect about 35,000 threads totalling some 600,000 replies, and label 1% of them for usefulness using Amazon Mechanical Turk. We train a Random Fo ...

Diffusion-weighted imaging evidence of altered white matter development from late childhood to early adulthood in Autism Spectrum Disorder

Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Fikret Isik Karahanoglu

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is thought to reflect disrupted development of brain connectivity characterized by white matter abnormalities and dyscoordination of activity across brain regions that give rise to core features. But there is little consensus ...

Case-Control Discrimination Through Effective Brain Connectivity

Luca Dodero

Functional and structural connectivity convey different information about the brain. The integration of these different approaches is receiving growing attention from the research community, as it can shed new light on brain functions. This manuscript prop ...

Is functional brain connectivity atypical in autism? A systematic review of EEG and MEG studies

Christian O'Reilly

Background Although it is well recognized that autism is associated with altered patterns of over-and under-connectivity, specifics are still a matter of debate. Little has been done so far to synthesize available literature using whole-brain electroenceph ...

The Number of Genomic Copies at the 16p11.2 Locus Modulates Language, Verbal Memory, and Inhibition

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Bogdan Draganski, Loyse Hippolyte, Borja Rodriguez Herreros

BACKGROUND: Deletions and duplications of the 16p11.2 BP4-BP5 locus are prevalent copy number variations (CNVs), highly associated with autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. Beyond language and global cognition, neuropsychological assessments of thes ...

Predictable enriched environment prevents development of hyper-emotionality in the VPA rat model of autism

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Deborah La Mendola, Kamila Markram, Mônica Regina Favre, Melissa Cochrane, Dimitri Marco Christodoulou

Understanding the effects of environmental stimulation in autism can improve therapeutic interventions against debilitating sensory overload, social withdrawal, fear and anxiety. Here, we evaluate the role of environmental predictability on behavior and pr ...

The 16p11.2 locus modulates brain structures common to autism, schizophrenia and obesity

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte

Anatomical structures and mechanisms linking genes to neuropsychiatric disorders are not deciphered. Reciprocal copy number variants at the 16p11.2 BP4-BP5 locus offer a unique opportunity to study the intermediate phenotypes in carriers at high risk for a ...

Improving emotional face perception in autism with diuretic bumetanide: A proof-of-concept behavioral and functional brain imaging pilot study

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte, Ophélie Rogier, Torsten Ruest

Clinical observations have shown that GABA-acting benzodiazepines exert paradoxical excitatory effects in autism, suggesting elevated intracellular chloride (Cl-)(i) and excitatory action of GABA. In a previous double-blind randomized study, we have shown ...

Emotional contagion for pain is intact in autism spectrum disorders

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte, Ophélie Rogier, Torsten Ruest

Perceiving others in pain generally leads to empathic concern, consisting of both emotional and cognitive processes. Empathy deficits have been considered as an element contributing to social difficulties in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) ...

A Wearable Camera Detects Gaze Peculiarities during Social Interactions in Young Children with Pervasive Developmental Disorders

Aude Billard, Basilio Noris, Patrick Jermann, Silvia Magrelli

We report on the study of gazes, conducted on children with pervasive developmental disorders (PDD), by using a novel head-mounted eye-tracking device called the WearCam. Due to the portable nature of the WearCam, we are able to monitor naturalistic intera ...
