Query: Toward Personalized Affect-Aware Socially Assistive Robot Tutors in
  Long-Term Interventions for Children with Autism   Affect-aware socially assistive robotics (SAR) has shown great potential for
augmenting interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).
However, current SAR cannot yet perceive the unique and diverse set of atypical
cognitive-affective behaviors from children with ASD in an automatic and
personalized fashion in long-term (multi-session) real-world interactions. To
bridge this gap, this work designed and validated personalized models of
arousal and valence for children with ASD using a multi-session in-home dataset
of SAR interventions. By training machine learning (ML) algorithms with
supervised domain adaptation (s-DA), the personalized models were able to trade
off between the limited individual data and the more abundant less personal
data pooled from other study participants. We evaluated the effects of
personalization on a long-term multimodal dataset consisting of 4 children with
ASD with a total of 19 sessions, and derived inter-rater reliability (IR)
scores for binary arousal (IR = 83%) and valence (IR = 81%) labels between
human annotators. Our results show that personalized Gradient Boosted Decision
Trees (XGBoost) models with s-DA outperformed two non-personalized
individualized and generic model baselines not only on the weighted average of
all sessions, but also statistically (p < .05) across individual sessions. This
work paves the way for the development of personalized autonomous SAR systems
tailored toward individuals with atypical cognitive-affective and
socio-emotional needs.
