Abstract
The present study uses deep learning methods to detect autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in patients from global multi-site database Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE) based on brain activity patterns. ASD is a neurological condition marked by repetitive behaviours and social difficulties. A deep learning-based approach using transfer learning for automatic detection of ASD is proposed in this study, which uses characteristics retrieved from the intracranial brain volume and corpus callosum from the ABIDE data set. T1-weighted MRI scans provide information on the intracranial brain volume and corpus callosum. ASD is detected using VGG-16 based on transfer learning.
