PATIENT INVARIANT MODEL FOR FREEZING OF GAIT DETECTION BASED ON EMPIRICAL WAVELET DECOMPOSITION

This disclosure relates generally to patient invariant model for freezing of gait detection based on empirical wavelet decomposition. The method receives a motion data from an accelerometer sensor coupled to an ankle of a subject. The motion data is further processed to denoise a plurality of data windows using a peak detection technique to classify into a real motion data window or a noisy data window. Further, a plurality of denoised data windows are generated by processing spectrums associated with each real motion data window and a plurality of empirical modes using an empirical wavelet decomposition technique (EWT). Then, a resultant acceleration is computed, and a plurality of features are extracted from the denoised data window which enables detection of freezing of gait based on a pretrained classifier model into a (i) a positive class, or (ii) a negative class.
