MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541123222 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 6, 2025, for 'adaptive machine learning framework for autism detection.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Deepika J; and Nishanth Uvaraj.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a system for automated processing of behavioral questionnaire data. The system includes a data preprocessing module configured to process behavioral questionnaire data from users, a machine learning training module configured to train classification algorithms on preprocessed data, an explainable artificial intelligence module configured to generate interpretable explanations of classification predictions, a web-based interface configured to collect behavioral questionnaire responses, a prediction engine configured to process user input through trained classification models and generate predictions, and a results presentation module configured to display classification outcomes with explanations. The data preprocessing module applies SMOTE-Tomek resampling to address class imbalance and iterative imputation for missing values. The machine learning training module trains Decision Tree, Random Forest, and XGBoost algorithms with hyperparameter optimization through GridSearchCV. The explainable artificial intelligence module generates SHAP values for feature contribution analysis and waterfall plots for prediction explanations."
