AI research is moving ADHD diagnosis away from subjective interviews toward objective, data-driven tools, with EEG emerging as preferred modality for recent models.
A bibliometric review of 722 Scopus-indexed papers from 2011 to 2024 tracked how artificial intelligence has been applied to ADHD prediction. Using Python and VOSviewer, the authors found exponential growth peaking in 2023, a concentration of output in the United States and China, and a technological shift from support vector machines to deep learning with EEG becoming the favored data modality.
