Machine learning classifies predictive kinematic features in a mouse model of neurodegeneration

Abstract Motor deficits are observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) prior to the appearance of cognitive symptoms. To investigate the role of amyloid proteins in gait disturbances, we characterized locomotion in APP-overexpressing transgenic J20 mice. We used three-dimensional motion capture to charact...
