Gait Disorder Detection and Classification Method Using Inertia Measurement Unit for Augmented Feedback Training in Wearable Devices

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease, one of the symptoms of which is a gait disorder, which decreases gait speed and cadence. Recently, augmented feedback training has been considered to achieve effective physical rehabilitation. Therefore, we have devised a numerical mode...
