“…The adaptation may be achieved through the modification of game scenarios, game world entities, difficulty levels, graphic user interfaces, etc. (see for example (Peirce et al, 2008;Chittaro et al, 2009;Rojas et al, 2012)). For instance, Hunicke et al (2004) proposed an adaptive system called Hamlet, in which the strength of weapons, the virtual level of health, accuracy and other game entity properties are adapted to the player's skills.…”

In this paper, we propose a game adaptation technique that seeks to improve the training outcomes of stroke patients during a therapeutic session. This technique involves the generation of customized game levels, which difficulty is dynamically adjusted to the patients' abilities and performance. Our goal was to evaluate the effect of this adaptation strategy on the training outcomes of post-stroke patients during a therapeutic session. We hypothesized that a dynamic difficulty adaptation strategy would have a more positive effect on the training outcomes of patients than two control strategies, incremental difficulty adaptation and random difficulty adaptation. To test these strategies, we developed three versions of PRehab, a serious game for upper-limb rehabilitation. Seven stroke patients and three therapists participated in the experiment, and played all three versions of the game on a graphics tablet. The results of the experiment show that our dynamic adaptation technique increases movement amplitude during a therapeutic session. This finding may serve as a basis to improve patient recovery.

“…Diverse KSSs have been implemented recently using this traditional approach, for example, DSS for cancer treatments [19]; KSS for medical emergency services [20]; DSS for costing job-orders [21]; and, KSS for strategic planning [22]. Intelligent Systems are comprised of KSSs that also employ some MRs of artificial intelligence related to web semantics, ontologies, user-profiles, data-and text-mining, and so on.…”
