This idea is called “learned helplessness” and is very negative for the child cognitive development and social development as well. With this entire situation it is very likely that the self-steam and mood of this child. Trying to help these children on this situation, educational robotics can offer and aid, once it can give them a certain degree of independency in exploration of environment. The system developed in this work allows the child to transmit the commands to a robot. Sensors placed on the child's body can obtain information from head movement or muscle pulses to command the robot to carry the tasks. Also, this system can be used with a variety of robots, being necessary just a previous configuration. It is expected that, with the usage of this system, the disabled children have a better cognitive development and social interaction, balancing in a certain way, the negative effects of their disabilities.","PeriodicalId":313030,"journal":{"name":"ISSNIP Biosignals and Biorobotics Conference 2011","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129120997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The masses are distinguished from other breast tissue by its homogeneous and differentiated density in relation to other breast tissues. The segmentation strategy is based on the assessment of density using multiscale wavelet transform. The density data obtained by processing with wavelet are used to train multilayer perceptron network (MLP) with one hidden layer with error back-propagation algorithm. After the training phase, any mammography with possible masses is then submitted to a trained neural network. The image resulting from processing handled by the neural network has evidenced the relevant characteristics of the original image. The characteristics not relevant were minimized with respect to density. The processed image then serves to provide contours of possible masses in the original image using an automated thresholding criterion. A set of five images was used in the training phase. The trained network was used to detect masses in 19 images (not used for training) that were previously classified by an expert. The TPR (sensitivity) measured was 68.2%, the FPR measurement was 8.7%.","PeriodicalId":313030,"journal":{"name":"ISSNIP Biosignals and Biorobotics Conference 2011","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121681622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
