The application of intelligent tutoring systems and social robots in autism treatment

摘要

This study examines the utilization of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) and social robots as innovative technologies to augment the treatment of autism. In the context of artificial intelligence, these interactive systems offer personalized and engaging interventions, holding great promise for individuals on the autism spectrum. While the research in this field is still evolving and lacks maturity, early findings indicate increased engagement and potential for improved learning outcomes among autistic children. Intelligent tutoring systems, capable of adapting to individual learners, exhibit promise for delivering personalized and effective interventions. Social robots, with their interactive functionalities, provide a distinct avenue for fostering social communication and skill development. Moreover, these technologies have the potential to deliver cost-effective intervention methods, thus enhancing accessibility for children with autism and their families. However, further research, development, and integration into existing therapeutic approaches are imperative to fully actualize their potential. By harnessing the power of intelligent tutoring systems and social robots, it is possible to pave the way for more effective, personalized, and engaging autism treatment, positively impacting the lives of individuals on the autism spectrum.
