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.

Disentangling Acoustic Cues in Alzheimer's Pathology and Perception: The Roles of Language and Gender

arXiv:2607. 23977v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Acoustic biomarkers show promise for detecting Alzheimer's Disease (AD), yet whether the cues driving diagnostic AI align with those salient to human listeners is underexplored across languages and genders, where pathological markers and perceptual strategies differ.

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.
