Detecting tremors is challenging for both humans and machines. Infants exposed to opioids during pregnancy often show signs and symptoms of withdrawal after birth, which are easy to miss with the human eye. The constellation of clinical…

Monitoring of cardiovascular activity is highly desired and can enable novel applications in diagnosing potential cardiovascular diseases and maintaining an individual's well-being. Currently, such vital signs are measured using intrusive…

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease that can affect a person's movement, speech, dexterity, and cognition. Clinicians primarily diagnose Parkinson's disease by performing a clinical assessment of symptoms. However,…

Purpose: A profound education of novice surgeons is crucial to ensure that surgical interventions are effective and safe. One important aspect is the teaching of technical skills for minimally invasive or robot-assisted procedures. This…

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide and affects around 1% of the (60+ years old) elderly population in industrial nations. More than 80% of PD patients suffer from motor symptoms, which…

Motion-related artifacts are inevitable in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and can bias automated neuroanatomical metrics such as cortical thickness. These biases can interfere with statistical analysis which is a major concern as motion…

Objective: To apply deep learning pose estimation algorithms for vision-based assessment of parkinsonism and levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID). Methods: Nine participants with Parkinson's disease (PD) and LID completed a levodopa infusion…

Open, or non-laparoscopic surgery, represents the vast majority of all operating room procedures, but few tools exist to objectively evaluate these techniques at scale. Current efforts involve human expert-based visual assessment. We…

Background: Physiological tremor is defined as an involuntary and rhythmic shaking. Tremor of the hand is a key symptom of multiple neurological diseases, and its frequency and amplitude differs according to both disease type and disease…

Dysarthria is a speech disorder characterized by impaired intelligibility and reduced communicative effectiveness. Automatic dysarthria assessment provides a scalable, cost-effective approach for supporting the diagnosis and treatment of…

Human nail diseases are gradually observed over all age groups, especially among older individuals, often going ignored until they become severe. Early detection and accurate diagnosis of such conditions are important because they sometimes…

Cervical dystonia (CD) is the most common form of dystonia, yet current assessment relies on subjective clinical rating scales, such as the Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS), which requires expertise, is subjective…

Objective monitoring and assessment of human motor behavior can improve the diagnosis and management of several medical conditions. Over the past decade, significant advances have been made in the use of wearable technology for continuously…

This paper proposes an interactive system for mobile devices controlled by hand gestures aimed at helping people with visual impairments. This system allows the user to interact with the device by making simple static and dynamic hand…

Parkinson's disease is a neurological condition that occurs in nearly 1% of the world's population. The disease is manifested by a drop in dopamine production, symptoms are cognitive and behavioural and include a wide range of personality…

When technical requirements are high, and patient outcomes are critical, opportunities for monitoring and improving surgical skills via objective motion analysis feedback may be particularly beneficial. This narrative review synthesises…

Diagnosing Parkinson's disease is a complex task that requires the evaluation of several motor and non-motor symptoms. During diagnosis, gait abnormalities are among the important symptoms that physicians should consider. However, gait…

Parkinson's disease (PD) is debilitating, progressive, and clinically marked by motor symptoms. As the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world, it affects over 10 million lives globally. Existing diagnoses methods have…

Standard clinical assessments of upper-extremity motor function after stroke either rely on ordinal scoring, which lacks sensitivity, or time-based task metrics, which do not capture movement quality. In this work, we present a computer…

Technological advancements have spurred the usage of machine learning based applications in sports science. Physiotherapists, sports coaches and athletes actively look to incorporate the latest technologies in order to further improve…
