A systematic review of machine learning techniques to address diagnosis and treatment of autism: challenges and opportunities

The article reviews 55 machine‑learning studies on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) published between 2017 and 2023, focusing on how ML can aid early diagnosis and treatment. It finds that supervised learning dominates current research, while deep learning is gaining traction as data volumes grow. The review highlights the need for models that fuse complex data—such as genetic, clinical, wearable, and biometric sources—to improve diagnostic accuracy and enable continuous, non‑intrusive monitoring.

AOI-Net: Structural Face AOI-Guided Eye-Gaze Track Representation Learning for Autism Spectrum Disorder Detection

AOI-Net introduces a structural face AOI-guided Eye‑Gaze Track Network that jointly models short‑term temporal dynamics and AOI‑level structural organization for Autism Spectrum Disorder detection. The network uses a gating mechanism to adaptively combine complementary representations and incorporates class‑distribution‑aware learning to address the imbalance between ASD and typically developing participants. Experiments on a large clinical eye‑tracking database with over 1,300 participants demonstrate that AOI‑Net outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods and offers interpretable gaze‑behavior modeling for scalable AI‑driven ASD screening.

UniAR: A Unified Framework for Autism Recognition Enhanced by Multi-View Prompt Learning

UniAR is a unified framework that improves autism spectrum disorder (ASD) recognition by using multi-granularity prompt learning and a large multimodal model to generate diagnostic descriptions at word, phrase, and sentence levels. It aligns these semantic representations with visual evidence through a Mixture-of-Experts-based Multi-Scale Alignment Module, enabling robust ASD detection across heterogeneous data types. Experiments on four brain MRI and facial expression benchmarks show that UniAR outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods, achieving 75.9% accuracy on MRI and 91.6% on facial benchmarks, with gains of 1.5 and 1.2 percentage points respectively.

Test-Time Adaptation via Cache Personalization for Facial Expression Recognition in Videos

The paper presents Test-Time Adaptation via Cache Personalization (TTA‑CaP), a gradient‑free, cache‑based method that personalizes vision‑language models for facial expression recognition in videos. TTA‑CaP uses three complementary caches—a personalized static cache, a positive target cache, and a negative target cache—controlled by a tri‑gate mechanism to prevent corruption and provide robust subject‑matched evidence. Experiments on BioVid, StressID, and BAH datasets show that TTA‑CaP outperforms state‑of‑the‑art test‑time adaptation methods while keeping computational and memory overhead low.
