Because autism is a spectrum disorder, each person with autism has a distinct set of strengths and challenges. The ways in which people with autism learn, think and problem-solve can range from highly skilled to severely challenged.\nResearch has made clear that high quality early intervention can improve learning, communication and social skills, as well as underlying brain development. Yet the diagnostic process can take several years.\n\n### The Role of Machine Learning\nThis dataset is composed of survey results for more than 700 people who filled an app form. There are labels portraying whether the person received a diagnosis of autism, allowing machine learning models to predict the likelihood of having autism, therefore allowing healthcare professionals prioritize their resources.\n \n\n**REVA Academy for Corporate Excellence**, RACE is an initiative of REVA University, which offers a range of specialized, techno-functional programs in emerging technologies, custom-designed for the learning needs of working professionals and organizations. RACE undertakes research and consulting projects in artificial intelligence and data science on social causes. One of the areas RACE researchers are working is on learning disabilities. Through this competition, we endeavor to create awareness among the data science community to develop an AI based system for early diagnosis of Autism.\n\n**Swags:** The top five winning teams will receive customized swags from **Swiss Re** and **Terralogic Inc**.\n\n![SwissRe](https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1c_BuD6SU7YgeUQqrjXtSNsIDMo-Scx3A)\n![TerraLogic](https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1MYYQVpzEub1wabCFqeuKlHcQBPCBxLmT)\n\n**Resources to Learn More About Autism** \n\nhttps://neuroclastic.com/resources/\n\n# **Acknowledgements**\n\n**Citations**\n\nTabtah, F.

The AUC-ROC Score is commonly used for classification tasks. It measures the degree or measure of separability between the classes. The ROC curve is plotted with TPR against the FPR where TPR is on the y-axis and FPR is on the x-axis.\n\nTPR or True Positive Rate can be defined as (True Positives / (True Positives + False Negatives))\nSimilarly FPR, or False Positive Rate, can be defined as (False Positives / (False Positives + True Negatives))\n\nAUC - ROC curve is a performance measurement for the classification problems at various threshold settings\n\n# **Submission Format**\n\nEvery Submission file should have the the following format:\n\n\n```\nID,Class/ASD\n1,1\n```\nYou can refer to the sample_submission.csv file to get an idea on how to frame the submission file.",
