Rest tremor quantification based on fuzzy inference systems and wearable sensors

A method to perform rest tremor quantification fully adhered to the MDS-UPDRS based on wearable sensors and fuzzy inference system is proposed, which enables a reliable and repeatable assessment while still computing features suggested by clinicians in the scale. This quantification is straightforward and scalable allowing clinicians to improve inference by means of new linguistic statements. In addition, the method is immediately accessible to clinical environments and provides rest tremor amplitude data with respect to the timeline. A better resolution is also achieved in tremors rating by adding a continuous range.
