Leveraging hybrid model of ConvNextBase and LightGBM for early ASD detection via eye-gaze analysis by Ranjeet Bidwe, Sashikala Mishra, Simi Bajaj, Ketan Kotecha

“…. • A new ConvNextBase architecture proposed with few unfreezed layers and extra dense layers with units of 512 and 128, respectively, and dropout layers with a rate of 0.5 that extract rich, high-level, and more complex features from the images to improve generalization and mitigate overfitting. • A LightGBM model performed classification using 3-fold cross-validation and found the best parameters for bagging_function, feature_fraction, max_depth, Number_of_leaves and learning_rate with values of 0.8, 0.8, −1, 31 and 0.1 respectively, to improve the model's robustness on unseen data.This proposed method is trained and tested on the publicly available Kaggle dataset, and results are benchmarked with other state-of-the-art methods. …”
