Topological Descriptors for Parkinson's Disease Classification and Regression Analysis
At present, the vast majority of human subjects with neurological disease are still diagnosed through in-person assessments and qualitative analysis of patient data. In this paper, we propose to use Topological Data Analysis (TDA) together with machine learning tools to automate the process of Parkinson's disease classification and severity assessment. An automated, stable, and accurate method to evaluate Parkinson's would be significant in streamlining diagnoses of patients and providing families more time for corrective measures. We propose a methodology which incorporates TDA into analyzing Parkinson's disease postural shifts data through the representation of persistence images. Studying the topology of a system has proven to be invariant to small changes in data and has been shown to perform well in discrimination tasks. The contributions of the paper are twofold. We propose a method to 1) classify healthy patients from those afflicted by disease and 2) diagnose the severity of disease. We explore the use of the proposed method in an application involving a Parkinson's disease dataset comprised of healthy-elderly, healthy-young and Parkinson's disease patients.

Topological descriptors of foot clearance gait dynamics improve differential diagnosis of Parkinsonism
Differential diagnosis among parkinsonian syndromes remains a clinical challenge due to overlapping motor symptoms and subtle gait abnormalities. Accurate differentiation is crucial for treatment planning and prognosis. …
End-to-End Parkinson Disease Diagnosis using Brain MR-Images by 3D-CNN
In this work, we use a deep learning framework for simultaneous classification and regression of Parkinson disease diagnosis based on MR-Images and personal information (i.e. age, gender). We intend to facilitate and inc…
