A groundbreaking artificial intelligence algorithm that was developed by scientists at the University of Geneva has the ability to detect Autism Spectrum Disorder—a disability that is quite challenging to diagnose during a child’s early years—in children under the age of five.
By anonymously analyzing a child’s movements and/or interactions with another person through video recordings, this newfound AI algorithm is able to identify whether a child displays characteristics of autism spectrum disorder, such as difficulty in establishing eye contact, smiling, pointing to objects, or the way they are interested in what surrounds them.
