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.

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.
