Autism spectrum disorder classification on electroencephalogram signal using deep learning algorithm

Abstrak

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental that impact the social interaction and communication skills. Diagnosis of ASD is one of the difficult problems facing researchers. This research work aimed to reveal the different pattern between autistic and normal children via electroencephalogram (EEG) by using the deep learning algorithm. The brain signal database used pattern recognition where the extracted features will undergo the multilayer perceptron network for the classification process. The promising method to perform the classification is through a deep learning algorithm, which is currently a well-known and superior method in the pattern recognition field. The performance measure for the classification would be the accuracy. The higher percentage means the more effectiveness for the ASD diagnosis. This can be seen as the ground work for applying a new algorithm for further development diagnosis of autism to see how the treatment is working as well in future.
