Machine learning model comparison for freezing of gait prediction in advanced Parkinson’s disease

Freezing of gait (FOG) is a paroxysmal motor phenomenon that increases in prevalence as Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses. It is associated with a reduced quality of life and an increased risk of falls in this population. Precision-based detection and classification of freezers are critical to developing tailored treatments rooted in kinematic assessments.
