Autism Spectrum Disorder Detection Through Connectivity Analysis and Feature Selection
摘要
This study investigates the detection of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by analyzing brain connectivity patterns derived from resting-state fMRI data in the ABIDE dataset. Using the CC400 atlas and a Deep Neural Network (DNN), the model achieved an impressive accuracy of 100% in both cross-validation and on a test set comprising 30% of the dataset. The dataset included 403 individuals with ASD and 468 typically developing controls (TC). This performance surpasses current state-of-the-art methods, emphasizing the effectiveness of advanced feature selection and deep learning approaches in classifying ASD based on brain connectivity pattern.
