arXiv:2605.23941v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder marked by progressive declines in memory and language that reduce independence in daily life, motivating socially assistive robotic support. This paper presents MEMOR-E, a mobile quadruped robot with an interactive tablet interface that assists patients and caregivers through medication reminders, routine guidance, memory oriented interactions, and companionship. We evaluated the feasibility of fine tuning large language models (LLMs) to emulate stage consistent cognitive behavior and interpret responses across standard neuropsychological language tasks, using audio transcriptions from 235 Alzheimer's patients and synthetically generated healthy controls. We also report findings on using in context learning (ICL) in LLMs, where a second LLM produced domain and severity level cognitive error summaries. Our results show that MEMOR-E can generate stage aware, non diagnostic cognitive summaries that support personalized assistive interactions, while explainable AI mechanisms translate model outputs into transparent, human readable evidence to enable caregiver oversight and trustworthy human robot interaction.
MEMOR-E: In-Context and Fine-Tuned LLM Personalization for Alzheimer's Assistive Robotics
Researchers developed MEMOR-E, a mobile quadruped robot with a tablet interface that assists Alzheimer's patients and caregivers with medication reminders, routine guidance, and memory-oriented interactions. The system uses fine-tuned large language models trained on audio transcriptions from 235 Alzheimer's patients to generate stage-aware cognitive summaries and personalized assistive responses. The robot's explainable AI mechanisms translate model outputs into human-readable evidence, enabling caregiver oversight and trustworthy human-robot interaction for daily living support.
