Detection and localisation of hesitant steps in people with Alzheimer's disease navigating routes of varying complexity

Detection and localisation of hesitant steps in people with Alzheimer's disease navigating routes of varying complexity

People with Alzheimer's disease (AD) have characteristic problems navigating everyday environments. While patients may exhibit abnormal gait parameters, adaptive gait irregularities when navigating environments are little explored or understood. The aim of this study was to assess adaptive loco...
