How we train a gait model on public PD force data
A methods note for clinicians, gait scientists, and AI researchers: PhysioNet Gait in Parkinson’s Disease, multi-step windows, per-session scaling, and subject-wise validation. Research framing only.
Why gait is an early signal in neurodegenerative disease
Clinic gait is often a snapshot. Neurodegenerative change is usually a time series. Why plantar force can be an early monitoring signal for clinicians, gait scientists, and ML researchers, without diagnosis or FDA claims.
