Abstract
In this study, a novel method is proposed for determining whether a child between the ages of 3 and 10 has autism spectrum disorder. Video games have the ability to immerse a child in an intense and immersive environment. With the expansion of the gaming industry over the past decade, the availability and customization of games for children has increased dramatically. When children play video games, they may display a variety of facial expressions and emotions. These facial expressions can aid in the diagnosis of autism. Footage of children playing a game may yield a wealth of information regarding behavioral patterns, especially autistic behavior. You can submit any video of a child playing a game to the interface, which is powered by the algorithm presented in this work. We utilized a dataset of 2,536 facial images of autistic and typically developing children for this purpose. The accuracy and loss function are presented to examine the 92.3% accurate prediction outcomes generated by the CNN model and deep learning.
