AID-FOG: Artificial Intelligence-Driven Freezing of Gait Detection in the Home (AID-FOG)

5. května 2026 aktualizováno: Moran Gilat, KU Leuven

Artificial Intelligence-Driven Freezing Of Gait Detection in the Home: Investigating How Free-living Activities Affect the Algorithm

Freezing of gait (FOG) is a debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease increases the risk of falling. Despite being a common symptom, it is still difficult to evaluate freezing of gait quickly and accurately. Currently, the gold-standard method to determine the severity of FOG is a manual analysis of video footage by an experienced assessor, collected during standardized FOG-provoking walking tests. Because this is a very time-intensive process, where different assessors sometimes obtain different results, our team at KU Leuven have developed an artificial-intelligent (AI) algorithm trained to identify FOG episodes based on wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor data. The AI algorithm has already undergone initial validation during laboratory testing, yielding promising results. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the AI algorithm can accurately detect FOG episodes in a less controlled environment, namely the home environment. In a second phase, the investigators will also use the collected data to improve the AI algorithm for automated FOG detection in the home. Finally, the investigators want to explore whether the AI algorithm can detect FOG in real-time.

Comparing the agreement between AID-FOG and gold-standard expert annotation to detect the percentage of time spent with freezing of gait (FOG) in relation to total time duration (%TF).
Časové okno: T0=test day 1: free-living gait assessment (5 hours), T1=test day 2: free-living gait (5 hours) and T2= test day 3: standardized gait (4 hours)
The primary outcome (percentage of time spent with FOG in relation to total task duration = %TF) will be established by manual annotations of video footage by an experienced assessor (=gold-standard reference) and by the automated AID-FOG algorithm v1.0 applied post-hoc (i.e. offline) to IMU data collected during the same walking tasks. This will be calculated for standardized walking tasks on which the AID-FOG algorithm has been trained, standardized walking tasks on which the AID-FOG algorithm was not trained, and a free-living walking condition on which the AID-FOG algorithm was not trained.
