Referent gaze data distribution (‘reference’) was created using gaze coordinates from 51 typically developing (TD) males (aged 3.48±1.29 years old). Upper row: two example frames with gaze …
Violin plots illustrate the distribution of Proximity Index (PI) values for two groups: typically developing (TD) in blue (n = 51) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in red (n = 166). The error bars …
Loadings on the latent component were derived using partial least squares correlation analysis in the sample of 166 children with ASD. The cross-correlation matrix consisted of the Proximity Index …
(A1) Relative proportion of focal and ambient fixations in a sample of 51 TD children and 166 ASD children. Box-and-whisker plots illustrate the distribution of fixation proportions. The …
(A) Illustration of the graph-based visual saliency (GBVS) salience model (Full model combining five channels: I-Intensity, O-Orientation, C-Color, F-Flicker, M-Motion). From top to bottom: Saliency …
(A) From top to down: In red, the average proximity index (PI) from 166 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) over time frames. Red-shaded regions denote a 95% confidence interval of the …
Sample comprised 81 children with ASD who had valid eye-tracking recording and a complete set of behavioral phenotype measures a year after the baseline (T2). The PI for this paired longitudinal …
Panel A: The sliding window approach applied to the available recordings in our ASD group (red) and our TD group (blue); Panel B: gaze dispersion in two groups for the sliding windows n°7 and n°42 …
The continuous function was estimated using a kneed Python package using the average variance (over 5150 frames) of average (over 500 bootstrapped samples without replacement) mean pairwise distance …
(A) From left to right: full saliency model with all five channels combined and channels taken separately: I-intensity, O-orientation, D-color, F-flicker, and M-motion channel. From top to bottom: …
(A) Three frames (denoted as a, b, c) illustrate three levels of social intensity; (B) Visual complexity depicted using the edges of the images detected using the Canny method (Canny, 1986) for the …
Sample comprised 81 children with ASD who had valid eye-tracking recording and a complete set of behavioral phenotype measures a year after the baseline (T2). The PI for this paired longitudinal …
The dispersion in 100 bootstrapped samples of ASD recordings is given in red and the original group dispersion in the TD group is shown in blue. Panel A: ASD bootstrapped samples are matched to the …

Note. p-valuesa are obtained using nonparametric Mann-Whitney tests of differences between the two groups.
pvalues are obtained using t-test of differences between the ASD and TD group across 59 windows.
