Abstract
In this paper, we deal with the problem of the initial analysis of data from evaluation sheets of subjects with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). In the research, we use an original evaluation sheet including questions about competencies grouped into 17 spheres. An initial analysis is focused on the data preprocessing step including the filtration of cases based on consistency factors. This approach enables us to obtain simpler classifiers in terms of their size (a number of nodes and leaves in decision trees and a number of classification rules).
