Evaluation of deep convolutional neural networks for detection of freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease patients

摘要

Background and objective: Freezing of gait (FOG) is a symptom that manifests as an episodic inability to move. It happens typically in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), and it is a common cause of falls in PD patients. The management of FOG is extremely difficult due to its sudden and transient property.
