Analysis of static plantar pressure data with capsule networks: Diagnosing ataxia in MS patients with a deep learning-based approach.

In this study, it was aimed to detect ataxia in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) by utilizing static plantar pressure data and capsule networks (CapsNet), one of the deep learning (DL) architectures. CapsNet is also equipped with a robust dynamic routing mechanism that determines the output of the next capsule. MS is a chronic nervous system disease that shows its effect in the central nervous system and manifests itself with attacks.
