Autism: Importance of Neural Networks (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781639272846)

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are developmental disorders which originate in childhood. They are characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication, and restricted and repetitive behavior. Autism is linked to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. A neural network is a circuit of neurons, interconnected by synapses to carry out a specific function when activated. It is presumed that there is a common cause at the neural level for the symptoms of autism, apart from genetic and cognitive reasons. Timely behavioral interventions or speech therapy can aid autistic children in gaining social and communication skills. This book unravels the recent studies on this subject. It includes contributions of experts and scientists which will provide innovative insights into this field. The topics covered in this book deal with the relationship between neural networks and autism.
