This chapter describes current methods and future trends in signal processing and pattern recognition techniques applied to the automatic analysis of motor impairments observed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). A revision of the …
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the presence of different motor impairments. Information from speech, handwriting, and gait signals have been considered to evaluate the neurological state of the patients. On the …
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects the motor system and produces several problems to control muscles and limbs. One of the major manifestations of the disease appears in gait and typically causes disability in the …
Aim: This paper introduces Apkinson, a mobile application for motor evaluation and monitoring of Parkinson’s disease patients. Materials & methods: The App is based on previously reported methods, for instance, the evaluation of articulation and …
Parkinson’s disease is a neuro-degenerative disorder characterized by different motor symptoms, including several gait impairments. Gait analysis is a suitable tool to support the diagnosis and to monitor the state of the disease. This study proposes …
Parkinson’s disease is a neurological disorder that produces different motor impairments in the patients. The longitudinal assessment of the neurological state of patients is important to improve their quality of life. We introduced Apkinson, a …
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a variety of motor symptoms. Particularly, difficulties to start/stop movements have been observed in patients. From a technical/diagnostic point of view, these movement changes can …
