The Centre of Intelligence of Things, CIoTh, at the University of Greater Manchester is pleased to announce the publication of two new research papers focused on autism related innovation, developed using Psycho Intelligence, a new area of research pioneered at CIoTh.
These publications mark an important step in CIoTh’s ongoing commitment to developing more human-centred, responsive, and intelligent systems that better support autistic individuals. The work reflects the Centre’s growing interdisciplinary research strength at the intersection of artificial intelligence, psychology, and communication.
Psycho Intelligence is an emerging field developed within the lab to explore how AI systems can become more sensitive to human behaviour, emotion, communication patterns, and cognitive needs. Its application to autism-related innovation opens new possibilities for inclusive design, personalised support systems, and socially impactful intelligent technologies.
Commenting on the achievement, Professor Celestine said:
“This marks an important step in our effort to build more human-centred, responsive, and intelligent systems that can better support autistic individuals through interdisciplinary research at the intersection of AI, psychology, and communication. I am proud of the team and excited by the possibilities this emerging field opens for inclusive innovation and meaningful real world impact.”
