Abstract:
Early and objective assessment, as well as early intervention, are of particular importance for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to improve the long-term outcome. However, due to a lack of objective biomarkers, the current assessment of ASD depends mainly on limited behavioral observation. Recent advancements in software and hardware multimedia technologies provide new ways to identify ASD early. Evidence supports that the combination of machine learning with eye-tracking technology is expected to be a useful tool for the early and objective diagnosis of ASD. The current study reviewed the research on the combination of machine learning with eye-tracking technology for the identification of ASD. The limitations and future directions have also been proposed.
