• Abstract: Accurate assessment of Parkinsonian tremor is vital for monitoring disease progression and evaluating treatment efficacy. We introduce a pixel-based deep learning model designed to analyse postural tremor in Parkinson's disease (PD) from video data, overcoming the limitations of traditional pose estimation techniques. Trained on 2,742 assessments from five specialised movement disorder centres across two continents, the model demonstrated robust concordance with clinical evaluations. It effectively predicted treatment effects for levodopa and deep brain stimulation (DBS), detected lateral asymmetry of symptoms, and differentiated between different tremor severities. Feature space analysis revealed a non-linear, structured distribution of tremor severity, with low-severity scores occupying a larger portion of the feature space. The model also effectively identified outlier videos, suggesting its potential for adaptive learning and quality control in clinical settings. Our approach offers a scalable and objective method for tremor scoring, with potential integration into other MDS-UPDRS motor assessments, including bradykinesia and gait. The system's adaptability and performance underscore its promise for high-frequency, longitudinal monitoring of PD symptoms, complementing clinical expertise and enhancing decision-making in patient management. Future work will extend this pixel-based methodology to other cardinal symptoms of PD, aiming to develop a comprehensive, multi-symptom model for automated Parkinson's disease severity assessment.

  Deep learning models have shown promise for automatically segmenting MS lesions, but the scarcity of accurately annotated data hinders progress in this area. We introduce a Decoupled Hard Label Correction (DHLC) strategy that considers the imbalanced distribution and fuzzy boundaries of MS lesions. We also introduce a Centrally Enhanced Label Correction (CELC) strategy, which leverages the aggregated central model as a correction teacher for all sites.

We propose SPAPNet, which only requires consumer-grade non-intrusive video recording of camera-facing human movements as input to provide undiagnosed patients with low-cost PT classification results as a PD warning sign.
