Are the Eyes a Mirror of Autism? Explainable AI-Based Biomarker Discovery for Diagnosis

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents significant difficulties in diagnosis due to its nature and diversity of symptoms. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on comprehensive clinical evaluations and complex diagnostic processes. Recent advances in machine learning (ML) and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) offer promising models that help improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency in ASD. XAI methods provide explainability by determining feature importance and indicating the extent to which features im…

Current reading — gain

Using explainable AI to select eye-tracking features improved autism classification over traditional feature selection and surfaced four candidate biomarkers that traditional methods missed.

What this doesn’t fix

The biomarkers are described only as candidates, and the best AUC of 0.78 indicates moderate rather than definitive diagnostic performance.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2018 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
