AI Analysis

It provides a literature review for researchers working on Parkinson's Disease detection, but is incremental as it summarizes prior work without new results.

This paper reviews existing machine learning research on recognizing four motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, aiming to establish a foundation for algorithm development and improvement.

This paper reviews related work and state-of-the-art publications for recognizing motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease (PD). It presents research efforts that were undertaken to inform on how well traditional machine learning algorithms can handle this task. In particular, four PD related motor symptoms are highlighted (i.e. tremor, bradykinesia, freezing of gait and dyskinesia) and their details summarized. Thus the primary objective of this research is to provide a literary foundation for development and improvement of algorithms for detecting PD related motor symptoms.
