arXiv:2607. 07957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects over 75 million individuals worldwide, yet scalable computational methods for remote behavioral screening remain limited.
By Raunak Mondal, Peter Washington
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.

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.

The paper presents a new framework that classifies healthy gait and multiple musculoskeletal impairment groups using bilateral ground reaction force (GRF) and center-of-pressure (COP) signals. After normalizing and standardizing the signals, the model achieved 99.00% validation accuracy and 90.07% test accuracy with a session-level split. The approach includes class‑specific ε‑LRP explainability and synchronizes processed GRF signals with model predictions in a Blender‑based 3D visualization for sample‑level inspection.

arXiv:2608. 06122v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inspired by recent evidence that transformer architectures benefit from Self-PreTraining (SPT) on long-context benchmarks, we investigate whether similar gains extend to multimodal, multivariate, and even simple univariate medical time series.
