Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) presents a multifaceted challenge, demanding accurate and efficient screening methods. Applying machine learning techniques offers a promising avenue for enhancing diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. This research investigates the efficiency of machine learning in distinguishing individuals with ASD from those without, utilizing a comprehensive dataset comprising screening questions, demographic factors, and ASD related diagnostic classifications. We applied chi-square feature selection technique and also tested Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Gradient Boosting Classifier, and Extra Trees Classifier. Each model showed optimal performance and exhibit high precision, recall, and F1-score for both ASD-positive and ASD-negative instances. Additionally, AUROC curves further validated the models’ exceptional discriminatory abilities, with exceptional results. Our findings highlight the potential of machine learning algorithms for enhancing ASD diagnosis accuracy and efficiency in clinical settings. Further research and validation on larger datasets are required to understand the importance of machine learning methods in ASD diagnosis. |
