Abstract:Parkinson's disease (PD) deteriorates human cognitive and motor functions, causing slowness of movements and postural shakiness. PD is currently incurable, and managing symptoms in its late stages is difficult. PD diagnosis also has gaps in accuracy due to several clinical challenges. Thus, early-stage detection of PD through its symptoms, such as handwriting abnormality, has become a popular research area using machine learning. Since most related studies focus on advanced algorithms, this study aims to deter… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
