Background:

Accurate quantitative assessment of Parkinsonian tremor is vital for disease management.
Tremor amplitude variability and subjective clinical assessment pose challenges for precise quantification.
Existing automated methods are limited by the accuracy of manual labels.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an automatic method for modifying clinician-judged labels to enhance Parkinsonian tremor quantitation.
To improve the accuracy and reliability of automated tremor severity classification.
To optimize the use of wearable inertial sensors for Parkinson's disease assessment.

Main Methods:

An outlier modification algorithm (PCA-IQR) was developed to address overlapping feature ranges between tremor severity scores.
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Interquartile Range (IQR) were combined to refine label boundaries.
A Support Vector Machine (SVM) with a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel was employed for tremor severity classification, compared against k-nearest neighbors and linear SVM.

Main Results:

The proposed method achieved high classification performance for tremor quantitation.
Key performance metrics included accuracy (97.93%), precision (97.96%), sensitivity (97.93%), and F1-score (97.94%).
The model demonstrated excellent generalization ability.

Conclusions:

The developed automatic label modification method significantly improves Parkinsonian tremor quantitation.
This approach offers valuable support for clinicians in assessing tremor severity.
It also enables home-based self-monitoring for patients and enhances clinical assessment skills.
