Challenge Background

Nearly 1% of the population globally sufferers from Autism. Autism is a lifelong battle and early detection of autism can cure or help to manage the condition better. Therefore, a autism prediction model can help both child and parents to have better quality of life.

The Problem

Current screening processes incur costs and require expertise. Therefore, this project will apply ML to screen autism in children using a simple set of parameters reducing the cost and expertise needed.

Goal of the Project

  1. Exploratory Data Analysis
  2. Train ML model to predict Autism.
  3. Use explainability to identify the reason behind predictions.
  4. Write a research paper.
