DataSheet1_Generation and discrimination of autism MRI images based on autoencoder.pdf

This study aims to explore an autoencoder-based method for generating brain MRI images of patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and non-ASD individuals, and to discriminate ASD based on the generated images. Initially, we introduce the research background of ASD and related work, as well as the application of deep learning in the field of medical imaging. Subsequently, we detail the architecture and training process of the proposed autoencoder model, and present the results of generating MRI images for ASD and non-ASD patients. Following this, we designed an ASD classifier based on the generated images and elucidated its structure and training methods. Finally, through analysis and discussion of experimental results, we validated the effectiveness of the proposed method and explored future research directions and potential clinical applications. This research offers new insights and methodologies for addressing challenges in ASD studies using deep learning technology, potentially contributing to the automated diagnosis and research of ASD.
