How scientists secure the data driving autism research
Un ordinateur peut-il diagnostiquer l’autisme?
L’apprentissage automatique (machine learning) présente une possibilité pour aider les cliniciens à repérer l'autisme plus tôt, mais des obstacles techniques et éthiques demeurent.
Why are there so few autism specialists?
A lack of interest, training and pay may limit the supply of specialists best equipped to diagnose and treat children with autism.
Can a computer diagnose autism?
Machine-learning holds the promise to help clinicians spot autism sooner, but technical and ethical obstacles remain.
