Machine learning analysis of pregnancy data enables early identification of a subpopulation of newborns with ASD

Abstract To identify newborns at risk of developing ASD and to detect ASD biomarkers early after birth, we compared retrospectively ultrasound and biological measurements of babies diagnosed later with ASD or neurotypical (NT) that are collected routinely during pregnancy and birth. We used a superv...
