Goal: The purpose of this paper is to recognize autism spectrum disorders (ASD) using graph attention network. Methods: we propose a node features graph attention network (NF-GAT) for learning functional connectivity (FC) features to achieve ASD diagnosis. Firstly, node features are modelled based on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data, with each subject modelled as a graph. Next, we use the graph attention layer to learn the node features and gets the node information of different nodes for ASD classification. Results: Compared with other models, the NF-GAT has significant advantages in terms of classification results. Conclusions: NF-GAT can be effectively used for ASD classification.
