A system for inference of spatial context of Parkinson’s disease patients

This work proposes a concept for indoor ambulatory monitoring for Parkinson's disease patients. In the proposed concept, a wearable inertial sensor is kept as the main monitoring device through the day, and it is expanded by an ambient sensor system in the specific living areas with high estimated probability of occurrence of freezing of gait episode. The ambient sensor system supports decisions of the wearable sensor system by providing relevant spatial context information of the user, which is obtained through precise localization
