Background Autism spectrum disorder is a common neurological disorder, and is mainly manifested by social communication disorder, notch behavior and the like. At present, clinical diagnosis mainly depends on behavior observation, and has the problems of strong subjectivity and easy misdiagnosis. Resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging can reflect the connection strength between different functional areas of the brain noninvasively by measuring blood oxygen level dependent signals, and has become an important tool for researching brain diseases and performing auxiliary diagnosis. The traditional brain network analysis method generally builds a functional connection network based on the Pearson correlation coefficient, but the method can only capture the statistical synchronism of brain intervals, is easy to be interfered by noise, and lacks consideration of the inherent functional organization structure of the brain, so that the built brain network has fuzzy functional semantics. In the feature extraction stage, the existing method has two major limitations that in the space dimension, a single-scale graph neural network is adopted, local fine connection and global topological dependence are difficult to model at the same time, in the time dimension, the cyclic neural network is difficult to process long-range dependence, the computation complexity of a transducer model is high, and a single state space model can model the short-term fluctuation and the long-term trend of a brain signal in a mixed mode, different physiological meanings of the brain signal cannot be distinguished, and the capturing of a disease-specific time sequence mode is inaccurate. Therefore, an analysis method capable of constructing a brain network with a higher biological significance and simultaneously finely modeling the brain space-time characteristics is urgently needed to improve the accuracy and the interpretability of auxiliary diagnosis.
