arXiv:2608. 02408v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate gait analysis in Parkinson's disease (PD) typically relies on laboratory-based systems to capture biomechanical data, such as ground reaction forces (GRFs).
The paper reports the winning solution to the MoCha 2026 Parkinsonian Gait Benchmark, achieving a macro‑F1 score of 0.6945 on unseen clinical sites. The approach relies on a frozen public motion encoder followed by a single 4×512 linear layer, and gains are largely attributed to three key steps: exact replication of the benchmark’s head recipe, averaging per‑walk posteriors at the subject level, and a label‑free transductive calibration of feature means and decision thresholds. Extensive ablation studies show that fine‑tuning the encoder or using alternative encoders does not improve performance, and the subject‑level aggregation is identified as the primary contributor to the top score.
arXiv:2605. 15862v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Understanding adaptive biomechanical systems requires distinguishing observable performance, static multivariate representation, longitudinal displacement, and internal approximation of observed change.
The paper presents a new framework that classifies healthy gait and multiple musculoskeletal impairment groups using bilateral ground reaction force (GRF) and center-of-pressure (COP) signals. After normalizing and standardizing the signals, the model achieved 99.00% validation accuracy and 90.07% test accuracy with a session-level split. The approach includes class‑specific ε‑LRP explainability and synchronizes processed GRF signals with model predictions in a Blender‑based 3D visualization for sample‑level inspection.

arXiv:2408. 08182v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: People with Parkinson's Disease (PD) often experience progressively worsening gait, including changes in how they turn around, as the disease progresses.
