Abstract:

 

Autism is known as a neurobiological developmental disorder which affects language, communication, and cognitive skill. In the case of autism attention shift impairment and strong familiarity preference are considered to be prime deficiencies. Attention shift impairment is one of the most seen behavioral disorders found in autistic patients. We have model this behavior by employing self-organizing feature map (SOFM).
