Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common and debilitating gait impairment in Parkinson's disease. Further insight into this phenomenon is hampered by the difficulty to objectively assess FOG. To meet this clinical need, this paper proposes an…
Freezing of gait (FoG) is a common gait disability in Parkinson's disease, that usually appears in its advanced stage. Freeze episodes are associated with falls, injuries, and psychological consequences, negatively affecting the patients'…
Freezing of gait (FOG) is a debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease that impairs mobility and safety by increasing the risk of falls. An effective FOG detection system must be accurate, real-time, and deployable in free-living…
This paper presents the design of a wireless sensor network for detecting and alerting the freezing of gait (FoG) symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease. Three sensor nodes, each integrating a 3-axis accelerometer, can be placed on a…
Freezing of gait (FoG) is a special symptom found in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Patients who have FoG abruptly lose the capacity to walk as they normally would. Accelerometers worn by patients can record movement data during…
Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a common motor symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). During episodes of FOG, patients suddenly lose their ability to stride as intended. Patient-worn accelerometers can capture information on the…
Freezing of gait (FOG) is one of the most incapacitating symptoms in Parkinsons disease, affecting more than 50 percent of patients in advanced stages of the disease. The presence of FOG may lead to falls and a loss of independence with a…
Freezing of gait (FoG) is a debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). This work develops flexible wearable sensors that can detect FoG and alert patients and companions to help prevent falls. FoG is detected on the sensors using a…
Deep learning holds tremendous potential in healthcare for uncovering hidden patterns within extensive clinical datasets, aiding in the diagnosis of various diseases. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized…
Freezing of gait (FOG) is a debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) and a common cause of injurious falls. Recent advances in wearable-based human activity recognition (HAR) enable FOG detection, but bias and fairness in these…
Freezing-of-Gait (FoG) affects over 50% of mid-to-late stage Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, significantly impairing patients' mobility independence and reducing quality of life. FoG is characterized by sudden episodes where walking…
The accurate and reliable detection or prediction of freezing of gaits (FOG) is important for fall prevention in Parkinson's Disease (PD) and studying the physiological transitions during the occurrence of FOG. Integrating both commercial…
This paper introduces BagStacking, a novel ensemble learning method designed to enhance the detection of Freezing of Gait (FOG) in Parkinson's Disease (PD) by using a lower-back sensor to track acceleration. Building on the principles of…
Freezing of Gait (FoG) is a common gait deficit among patients diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (PD). In order to help these patients recover from FoG episodes, Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation (RAS) is needed. The authors propose a…
Freezing of Gait (FOG) is one of the most debilitating symptoms of Parkinson's Disease and is associated with falls and loss of independence. The patho-physiological mechanisms underpinning FOG are currently poorly understood. In this paper…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder that impacts the quality of life significantly, making in-home monitoring of motor symptoms such as Freezing of Gait (FoG) critical. However, existing symptom monitoring…
Parkinson's Disease (PD) often results in motor and cognitive impairments, including gait dysfunction, particularly in patients with freezing of gait (FOG). Current detection methods are either subjective or reliant on specialized gait…
Mobility is severely impacted in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), especially when they experience involuntary stopping from the freezing of gait (FOG). Understanding the neurophysiological difference between "voluntary stopping" and…
Early detection of neurodegenerative disorders is an important open problem, since early diagnosis and treatment may yield a better prognosis. Researchers have recently sought to leverage advances in machine learning algorithms to detect…
Freezing of gait is a Parkinson's Disease symptom that episodically inflicts a patient with the inability to step or turn while walking. While medical experts have discovered various triggers and alleviating actions for freezing of gait,…
