Hence, this paper proposes a framework for robot-assisted ASD evaluation based on partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) modeling, specifically POMDPs with mixed observability (MOMDPs). POMDP is broadly used for modeling optimal sequential decision making tasks under uncertainty. Spurred by the widely accepted autism diagnostic observation schedule (ADOS), we emulate ADOS through four tasks, whose models incorporate observations of multiple social cues such as eye contact, gestures and utterances. Relying only on those observations, the robot provides an assessment of the child\u2019s ASD-relevant functioning level (which is partially observable) within a particular task and provides human evaluators with readable information by partitioning its belief space. Finally, we evaluate the proposed MOMDP task models and demonstrate that chaining the tasks provides fine-grained outcome quantification, which could also increase the appeal of robot-assisted diagnostic protocols in the future. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0219843618500111","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,16]],"date-time":"2018-03-16T03:02:22Z","timestamp":1521169342000},"page":"1850011","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["POMDP-Based Coding of Child\u2013Robot Interaction within a Robot-Assisted ASD Diagnostic Protocol"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Frano","family":"Petric","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb, Unska 3, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}]},{"given":"Damjan","family":"Mikli\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb, Unska 3, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}]},{"given":"Zdenko","family":"Kova\u010di\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb, Unska 3, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,23]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"S0219843618500111BIB001","volume":"63","author":"Baio J.","year":"2014","journal-title":"MMWR"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB002","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0219843617500013"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TRO.2008.2001362"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12369-013-0202-2"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB007","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev-bioeng-071811-150036"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB008","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-540-48113-3_47"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB009","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijdevneu.2004.05.001"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1176\/appi.books.9780890425596"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB011","volume-title":"Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule","author":"Lord C.","year":"2002"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB012","volume-title":"The Autism Diagnostic Interview, Revised (ADI-R)","author":"Rutter M.","year":"2003"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB013","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1023\/A:1005415823867"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB014","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-22876-1_8"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB019","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-642-21869-9_37"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB023","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0278364910369861"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB027","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0012-1649.40.2.271"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB028","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archpsyc.65.8.946"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB029","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02178189"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB030","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02216051"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB031","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/1166214"},{"key":"S0219843618500111BIB032","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0012-1649.33.5.781"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Humanoid Robotics"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S0219843618500111","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,7]],"date-time":"2019-08-07T03:28:13Z","timestamp":1565148493000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1142\/S0219843618500111"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,4]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"02","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,23]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2018,4]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S0219843618500111"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s0219843618500111","relation":{},"ISSN":["0219-8436","1793-6942"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0219-8436","type":"print"},{"value":"1793-6942","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,4]]}}}
