• Towards Language Independent Detection of Dyslexia with a Web-based Game

  Maria Rauschenberger, Luz Rello, Ricardo Baeza-Yates, Jeffrey P. Bigham · 2018 · Proceedings of the 15th International Web for All Conference (W4A 2018)

  This paper presents MusVis, a web-based game designed to detect dyslexia in children using musical and visual elements that are language independent, potentially enabling screening before children learn to read. Dyslexia affects 5-15% of the world’s population and early…

• Screening Dyslexia for English Using HCI Measures and Machine Learning

  Luz Rello, Enrique Romero, Maria Rauschenberger, Abdullah Ali, Kristin Williams, Jeffrey P. Bigham, Nancy Cushen White · 2018 · International Conference on Digital Health

  This paper presents a machine learning approach to screening for dyslexia in English speakers by analyzing how users interact with a linguistic computer-based game called Dytective. More than 10% of the population has dyslexia, but most are diagnosed only after failing in…

• Towards the Prediction of Dyslexia by a Web-based Game with Musical Elements

  Maria Rauschenberger, Luz Rello, Ricardo Baeza-Yates, Emilia Gomez, Jeffrey P. Bigham · 2017 · Proceedings of the 14th International Web for All Conference (W4A)

  This paper presents DysMusic, a web-based serious game prototype that aims to predict the risk of dyslexia in pre-reading children using musical elements rather than linguistic tasks. Current dyslexia screening tools rely on reading and writing abilities — linguistic elements…

• Dytective: Towards Detecting Dyslexia Across Languages Using an Online Game

  Luz Rello, Kristin Williams, Abdullah Ali, Nancy Cushen White, Jeffrey P. Bigham · 2016 · Proceedings of the 13th International Web for All Conference (W4A)

  This paper presents Dytective, a browser-based game designed to screen for risk of dyslexia across English and Spanish languages. At least 10% of the global population has dyslexia, and in Spain over 40% of school dropout is attributed to it. Current detection methods are…

• DysMusic: detecting dyslexia by web-based games with music elements

  Maria Rauschenberger · 2016 · Proceedings of the 13th International Web for All Conference (W4A)

  This doctoral consortium paper proposes DysMusic, a web-based serious game that uses music elements to detect dyslexia in children aged 3 to 6—before they enter formal schooling and begin experiencing academic failure. The research is motivated by longitudinal evidence showing…
