Superior prediction of Autism on ABIDE dataset is demonstrated as we include site-harmonization before applying machine learning algorithms. The ablation analysis provides sub-network based interpretability.
Figure 1: Schematic diagram of all the classification methods used. An artificial neural network (ANN) based classifier was implemented along with a Random forest (RF) of classification trees. Architecture for classification involving denoising autoencoders based on Heinsfeld et al has been shown.
