General note Robot-Assisted Therapies (RAT) is an emerging field and has shown promising results. Recently, one<br/>of the prominent applications of robots is assistive therapy is for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).<br/>Autism Spectrum Disorder is a set of neurodevelopment disorder affecting 7.5 million people around<br/>the world. Children with ASD lack social and communication skills which affects their ability in<br/>schools as well as in community. Recently, humanoid robots are used for the treatment of children<br/>with autism spectrum disorder to improve the development of communicational, behavioral, motor<br/>movements, joint attention, and physical behaviors. These interactive interventions that use robots for<br/>children with ASD, is one of the favorable tools for improving the behavior of children. In particular,<br/>the area of robotics is helping a lot in the treatment of ASD as the robot acts as a mediator as well as<br/>measures the response of an autistic child. However, the research aiming that the treatment of children<br/>with autism is limited, these therapies introduced by robots are successful in establishing basic<br/>communication skills. This research has proposed a novel mathematical model for an adaptive therapy<br/>of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder called Multi-robot-mediated Intervention System (MRIS).<br/>Three different therapies related to improvement in joint attention and imitation skills, effective<br/>human-human interaction and comparison of effective stimulus are introduced under this mathematical<br/>model. This research aims to introduce multi-sensory data that provides the quantitative support for<br/>improvement in social skills of children with autism, replacing the current techniques of measuring the<br/>improvement from physically observing the ASD child and with video analysis. Besides ensuring the<br/>accuracy in results, this method also introduces consistency as robots are immune to fatigue, unlike<br/>humans. The effectiveness of the model has been validated using cognitive brain state of the children<br/>with Electroencephalogram (EEG) neuroheadsets. Moreover, the effectiveness of the results has been<br/>validated using statistical analysis and the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS).
