This study deals with the use of a robot-assisted body-weight-supported treadmill training in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with gait dysfunction. Twenty MS patients (10 men and 10 women) of the mean of 46.3 ± 8.5 years were assigned to a six-week...
High-dimensional linear classifiers, such as distance weighted discrimination (DWD) and versions of the support vector machine (SVM), are commonly used in biomedical research to distinguish groups of subjects based on a large number of features. Howe...
