abstract = {Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder that affects one's ability to understand social cues and to communicate. As it begins early in childhood and can last throughout a person's life, it is important to have an early intervention and rehabilitation. Previous research has shown that robotic platforms helped and encouraged positive outcome in ASD children rehabilitation. Early interventions through human-robot interaction (HRI) have the potential when used to improve communication and social skills of the children. In this research, a new framework has been developed featuring a robot and human interaction modules. A commercial robot, Rero has been adopted and used as the interaction medium. This robot has been selected based on its reconfigurable capability and ability to be developed into many forms. It is also mobile, speech enabled, controllable, programmable, and attractive. Five modules of interaction have been developed and approval from special education teachers and therapists has been sought. The modules are created to help the children to be able to imitate actions, follow instructions, name objects, as well as to focus and match colours. Observations from the experiment shows that the children enjoyed the interaction modules with a median of more than 70% of scores and were well engaged with the robots with certain type of modules. © 2019 IEEE.},

abstract = {Autism is often being associated with the deficits in social communication, interaction as well as imagination. Autistic patients may experience the impairment in social interaction usually being related to their inability to interpret others' emotion and even to express their own feelings. As a result, children with autism are often been labeled as lacking the ability to express their emotion. The main objective of this paper is to present a pilot study in studying the autistic children's' emotions and feelings upon being triggered by the humanoid-robot, NAO. Kansei Engineering, which is a powerful emotion extraction mechanism is adopted in the study to assess the children's' emotion. The experiment involved two autistic children and one normal child who were given four interaction modules in separate intervention session. The experiment conducted is to observe how robot triggers the emotion of these children. The result shows that different types of modules which would trigger different emotional reactions. This result provides a basis for further investigation of the assessment of autistic children's feeling and emotion. The result will ultimately contribute to finding best possible therapy for autistic children towards the used of humanoid-robot.},
