Abstract: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a multifaceted neurodevelopmental condition that presents with diverse challenges in social interaction, communication, and behavioral tendencies. It is often characterized by repetitive actions and heightened sensitivity to sensory input. Detecting ASD at an early stage is crucial as it enables the initiation of timely interventions, therapies, and support mechanisms, which can greatly improve developmental progress and overall quality of life. However, despite increasing awareness, many cases of ASD are either diagnosed late or remain undetected due to the reliance on traditional diagnostic approaches. These methods are often subjective, time-intensive, and require specialized expertise, limiting their accessibility. This invention proposes an innovative solution that utilizes advanced machine learning algorithms and modern screening techniques to identify ASD in children during its early stages. By combining behavioral and physiological data, the system offers an objective and reliable diagnostic alternative. Behavioral data such as patterns in communication, social interaction, and motor skills are analyzed alongside physiological data, including eye-tracking metrics, speech tone variations, and biometrics like heart rate variability. These combined inputs create a detailed and holistic profile that helps uncover subtle signs of ASD that conventional assessments might miss. By addressing the limitations of traditional methods, this invention promotes early diagnosis, enabling children to access the necessary support and resources to achieve better developmental outcomes.
