Towards automated video-based assessment of dystonia in dyskinetic cerebral palsy: A novel approach using markerless motion tracking and machine learning

Introduction: Video-based clinical rating plays an important role in assessing dystonia and monitoring the effect of treatment in dyskinetic cerebral palsy (CP). However, evaluation by clinicians is time-consuming, and the quality of rating is dependent on experience. The aim of the current study is to provide a proof-of-concept for a machine...

Home‐Based Measurements of Dystonia in Cerebral Palsy Using Smartphone‐Coupled Inertial Sensor Technology and Machine Learning: A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Accurate and reliable measurement of the severity of dystonia is essential for the indication, evaluation, monitoring and fine‐tuning of treatments. Assessment of dystonia in children and adolescents with dyskinetic cerebral palsy (CP) is now commonly performed by visual evaluation either directly in the doctor’s office or from video...
