Vision-based human motion analysis in epilepsy - Methods and challenges

Motion is one of the most important characteristics in clinical epileptology. In developing an integrated motion analysis system for epileptic patients or children with neurological disorders (e.g. ADHD) we surveyed and analyzed current efforts in vision-based human motion analysis in epilepsy as well as all possible forms of motion typically encountered in known epileptic syndromes. This paper presents the results in a systematic way, and includes a critical discussion of methodological and scientific challenges that need to be addressed in this particular domain.
