    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Computer Science
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by differences in social interaction, communication, and behavior.
    • Visual processing and attention patterns can differ between individuals with and without high-functioning autism.
    • Eye tracking offers a non-invasive method to objectively measure visual behavior.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate if eye-tracking data can differentiate adults with and without high-functioning autism.
    • To determine the efficacy of machine learning classifiers trained on eye-tracking data for autism detection.
    • To identify specific gaze-based variables indicative of autism.

    Main Methods:

    • Collected eye-tracking data from 71 adult participants (31 with high-functioning autism, 40 controls) viewing web pages.
    • Trained machine learning classifiers using gaze-based and other variables from the eye-tracking data.
    • Evaluated the detection accuracy of the classifiers across two independent datasets with varying stimuli and tasks.

    Main Results:

    • The developed machine learning models achieved an average accuracy of approximately 74% in detecting high-functioning autism.
    • Significant differences in visual processing, as captured by eye movements, were observed between the autism and control groups.
    • The study demonstrated the feasibility of using eye-tracking for automated autism detection.

    Conclusions:

    • Eye-tracking data provides valuable insights into visual processing differences in adults with high-functioning autism.
    • Automated detection of high-functioning autism in adults is achievable using machine learning and eye-tracking technology.
    • This approach holds potential for objective and accessible autism screening tools.
