Abstract
Video processing for motor task analysis is described. In various examples, a video of a person carrying out a motor task, such as placing the forefinger on the nose, is input to a trained machine learning system to classify the motor task into one of a plurality of classes. In an example, motion descriptors such as optical flow are computed from pairs of frames of the video and the motion descriptors are input to the machine learning system. The motor task analysis may be used to assess or evaluate neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis and/or Parkinson's.
