The AT3 group has published a new article

The Technology Assisted Training and Therapy (AT3) group of LabLENI has published a new article entitled “Assessment of the Autism Spectrum Disorder Based on Machine Learning and Social Visual Attention: A Systematic Review” in the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders.

This paper wanted to present and discuss the current state of the art on machine learning algorithms used to differentiate children with autism from children with typical development, basing on their eye movements towards social stimuli. Impairments in social visual attention in autism are well-known and the current assessment of the disease might benefit from the inclusion of objective and more-ecological procedures.
