With the advancement of brain imaging techniques and a variety of machine learning methods, significant progress has been made in brain disorder diagnosis, in particular Autism Spectrum Disorder. The development of machine learning models that can di...
In recent years, several studies have demonstrated that machine learning and deep learning systems can be very useful to accurately predict brain age. In this work, we propose a novel approach based on complex networks using 1016 T1-weighted MRI brai...
Children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) experience persistent disrupted coordination in interpersonal synchronisation that is thought to be associated with deficits in neural connectivity. Robotic interventions have been explored for use with...
