Abstract: The current subject matter relates to rehabilitation using a content guide for viewing video, for example as a vision rehabilitation aid for individuals with hemianopia or as a rehabilitation aid for individuals with attention disorders. The current subject matter includes providing video in which a region of interest of the image is specified with a marker, referred to herein as a content guide. The content guide can include a circle surrounding the region of interest. By providing video with a content guide to direct viewers to a region of interest in the video, information acquisition by the viewers is improved. Such an approach can aid individuals with vision deficits or attention disorders. The current subject matter can also be used as a therapy for spatial neglect. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: Assessing acquisition of information related to a stimulus can be accomplished by providing a stimulus, recording a free recall response in natural language of the stimulus by a subject, and determining automatically a similarity. The similarity is between the recorded free recall response and a database comprising one or more control responses associated with the stimulus. A higher similarity indicates greater information acquisition by the subject. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.
