Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neuro-developmental condition affecting com-munication, behavior, and social interactions. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on prolonged clinician observation, making them subjective and difficult to scale and can be burdensome for parents in Pakistan. This creates a need for more accessible objective screening tool. This research evaluates the efficacy of deep learning-based facial expression recognition as a supportive tool for early ASD detection. This research presents a comparative analysis between YOLOVS, serving as the baseline and the latest YOLOv11 architecture. Both models were trained to recognize seven facial expressions using a dataset curated, annotated, and, augmented via Roboflow. The results demonstrate that while YOLOV8 establishes a reliable foundation for facial pattern recognition YOLOv11 provides significant improvements in accuracy. By benchmarking these two architectures this study highlights the real potential of evolving real-time object detection models to reduce diagnostic delays and support inclusive education and healthcare systems.

Textbook of mathematics 4 : based on single national curriculum 2020

Manzoor, Sadia,

This book is used for as a textbook for class 4 in Mathematics Subject. 1. Whole Numbers-- 2. Addition and subtraction-- 3. Multiplication and division-- 4. Factors and multiples. It is widely accepted that the curriculum plays a pivotal role in nation building. It reflects a nation's aspirations for its future generations of citizens and delineates the ambit of knowledge, skills, behaviors and attitudes that students must assimilate over the period of schooling. It is for this reason that the present government has declared implementation of a Single National Curriculum (SNC), a key priority. In pursuit of this overarching objective, the government has already developed the Single National Curriculum for grade pre 1-5 under a consultative approach with the engagement of experts from all provinces, areas and other relevant stakeholders. The SNC embodies the government's will to provide a level playing field to all students studying in the various educational institutes in Pakistan. In order to ensure implementation of SNC, in its true spirit, model textbooks have been developed in collaboration with experts from provinces and areas, teachers of federal and private educational institutes, faculty members of prominent universities, researchers, curriculum developers, teacher training and assessment professionals. In the same spirit, education experts from all over the country came together to participate in the review and refinement of the model textbooks to ensure that they are aligned with the SNC, international trends and the contextual socio-cultural value system.

Discrete mathematics and applications

Ferland, Kevin K., 1969-

"A Chapman & Hall book." This book is intended for a one-semester course in discrete mathematics. Such a course is typically taken by mathematics, mathematics education, and computer science majors, usually in their sophomore year. Calculus is not a prerequisite to use this book. Part one focuses on how to write proofs, then moves on to topics in number theory, employing set theory in the process. Part two focuses on computations, combinatorics, graph theory, trees, and algorithms.
