N2 - Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a highly heterogeneous condition, due to high variance in its etiology, comorbidity, pathogenesis, severity, genetics, and brain functional connectivity (FC). This makes it devoid of any robust universal biomarker. This study aims to analyze the role of age and multivariate patterns in brain FC and their accountability in diagnosing ASD by deep learning algorithms. We utilized functional magnetic resonance imaging data of three age groups (6 to 11, 11 to 18, and 6 to 18 years), available with public databases ABIDE-I and ABIDE-II, to discriminate between ASD and typically developing. The blood-oxygen-level dependent time series were extracted using the Gordon’s, Harvard Oxford and Diedrichsen’s atlases, over 236 regions of interest, as 236x236 sized FC matrices for each participant, with Pearson correlations. The feature sets, in the form of FC heat maps were computed with
