A Smartphone-Based Tool for AssessingParkinsonian Hand Tremor

N. Kostikis

Smartphone sensors are used to classify tremors in Parkinson's patients corellated with the UPDRS scale. Participants wore smartphone based gloves and data during tremors was collected and features like accelertation were computed after the data was collected.

The TYPALOC Corpus: A Collection of Various Dysarthric Speech Recordings in Read and Spontaneous Styles

Meunier C., Fougeron C., Fredouille C., Bigi B., Crevier-Buchman L., Delais-Roussarie E., Georgeton L., Ghio A., Laaridh I., Legou T., Pillot-Loiseau C., Pouchoulin G.

Dysarthic speakers pronounced various sentences and a corpus was collected to understand the phonetic variations between them and healthy controls(without Dysarthria) Audio was collected, transcribed and automatically aligned with the phonemes pronounced.

Intonation and speech rate in Parkinson's disease: general and dynamic aspects and responsiveness to levodopa admission.

S. Skodda, W. Grönheit, U. Schlegel

This work aims to analyze fundamental frequency (F(0)) variability (fundamental frequency standard deviation [F(0)SD]) and net speech rate (NSR) in the course of reading in Parkinsonian patients' speech. German speaking patients with Parkinson's disease went through a reading task, and they were recorded.

Unbiased and Mobile Gait Analysis Detects Motor Impairment in Parkinson's Disease

J. Klucken, J. Barth

A machine learning classifier to automatically detect motor impariment in patients with Parkinson's disease is constructed. To train the classifier a dataset of gait movements measured by acclerometer is collected. A mobile biosensor attached to the foot, eGaIT, is used to collect accelerometer, gyroscopes data during standarized gait and leg functions. Two participant groups are used to collect independent training and validation datasets.
