Abstract


The current paper review gives a brief and representative description of the role that artificial intelligence plays nowadays at the assessment of autism. Therefore, many researchers note that artificial intelligence plays a notable role in the early diagnosis of autism since it helps the clinicians shorten the diagnose process and have more accurate results. Thus, the research team of this paper presents some applications of artificial intelligence that are used already or are in a preliminary phase aiming to highlight the use of smart technology in the diagnosing process of autism. Lastly, it is worth noting that an early and accurate diagnose is the key point for an individualized and successful intervention which aids the academic as well as the personal de-velopment of the child.
