gaze patterns, they identified dyslexic tendencies with
high precision, providing an accessible tool that can
be integrated into e-learning platforms to screen for
dyslexia among students as they engage with reading
materials (Mahto and Kumar, 2024) investigated the
use of portable eye-tracking devices combined with
machine learning algorithms to monitor reading dif-
ficulties in natural settings. This approach facilitates
in-home screening, giving families a convenient, ac-
curate option to assess their children without needing
specialized clinical assessments.
2.4 Adaptive Learning Systems
Adaptive learning systems are AI-driven tools that
provide personalized learning experiences, which are
particularly beneficial for dyslexic students by adapt-
ing content to meet their unique needs. (Romero-
Mendez et al., 2023)proposed an adaptive learning
platform that uses reinforcement learning to adjust
difficulty levels based on the user’s reading capabil-
ities. Their system showed improved reading speed
and comprehension among dyslexic students, demon-
strating the potential for AI to enhance intervention
by adapting dynamically to individual progress and
needs (Nguyen and Nguyen, 2025) designed an intel-
ligent tutoring system that uses real-time feedback on
reading tasks, adapting its complexity based on the
student’s reading performance. This system person-
alizes learning paths and has shown significant im-
provements in reading confidence and skill level in
dyslexic students, making it a valuable tool for sus-
tained academic support (Kumar et al., 2023) devel-
oped an AI-powered mobile application that com-
bines gamification with adaptive learning, encourag-
ing dyslexic students to practice reading through in-
teractive activities. By adapting the game mechan-
ics to the user’s reading speed and accuracy, the app
provides a motivating and tailored experience that
helps overcome the frustration often associated with
dyslexic learning.
3 PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
The proposed methodology outlines an AI-based
framework for detecting dyslexia through a combina-
tion of multimodal data sources, including text, eye-
tracking, and speech data. The approach integrates
data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction,
model training, evaluation, and deployment, enabling
comprehensive dyslexia screening through multiple
indicators. The framework involves a pipeline that
collects, pre-processes, and analyzes multi modal data
to detect dyslexia-related patterns. It combines text
samples, eye-tracking metrics, and speech record-
ings, each contributing unique insights into reading
behaviors and linguistic challenges common among
dyslexic individuals. Below is the flowchart repre-
senting the key stages in the proposed methodology:
3.1 Data Collection
Data collection involves gathering information from
multiple sources, each chosen to capture distinct as-
pects of dyslexic reading and comprehension pat-
terns. The system collects data through the following
sources:
• Text samples: The participants are asked to com-
plete short essays or reading comprehension tasks.
For example, they may be prompted to write a
100-word summary of a short story. This data
captures language use, vocabulary choices, and
sentence structure, which are analyzed for pat-
terns like spelling errors and grammar inconsis-
tencies.
• Eye-tracking data: Eye movement is tracked as
participants read a passage of text, using met-
rics such as fixation duration (how long the
eyes remain on a single word), saccades (rapid
eye movements), and regressions (backward eye
movements). For instance, eye-tracking software
records how long a participant’s eyes fixate on
each word, which can reveal difficulty in process-
ing certain types of words.
• Speech data: Participants are recorded while read-
ing a passage aloud. The recording is later ana-
lyzed for fluency, error patterns, and pauses. For
example, a participant might struggle with pro-
nouncing certain words or make frequent pauses.
This data helps identify phonological difficulties
and speech fluency challenges typical in dyslexia.
3.2 Data Preprocessing
The preprocessing stage prepares the raw data from
each source for analysis, ensuring consistency, accu-
racy, and relevancy. This process includes the follow-
ing tasks:
• Text Preprocessing: This involves tokenization
(splitting text into individual words or phrases),
removing stopwords (common words like ”and,”
”the”), and conducting error analysis to identify
spelling and grammar issues. For instance, the
system might detect a pattern of misspelled words
or unusual word substitutions, which could signal
dyslexia.
