RETRACTED ARTICLE: An attention-based multi-residual and BiLSTM architecture for early diagnosis of autism spectrum...

The Editor has retracted and removed this publication. Concerns were raised regarding the use of images of minors from a non-curated dataset. The dataset is reported to contain images of children with ASD. However, the images appear to have been collected from the internet without any documented clinical history or confirmation of an actual ASD diagnosis. Additionally, there is no documented ethical oversight, or consent of the children included in the dataset or their parents and legal guardians. In light of these ethical concerns and the reliance on unverifiable data, the Editor and Publisher no longer have confidence in the reliability of this article. Author Rami S. Alkhawaldeh has stated that the authors disagree with this retraction.
