Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common chronic neurological diseases and one of the significant causes of disability for middle-aged and elderly people. Monitoring the patient’s condition and its compliance is the key to the success of the correction of the main clinical manifestations of PD, including the almost inevitable modification of the clinical picture of the disease against the background of prolonged dopaminergic therapy. In this article, we proposed an approach to assessing the condition of patients with PD using deep recurrent neural networks, trained on data measured using mobile phones. The data was received in two modes: background (data from the phone’s sensors) and interactive (data directly entered by the user). For the classification of the patient’s condition, we built various models of the neural network. Testing of these models showed that the most efficient was a recurrent network with two layers. The results of the experiment show that with a sufficient amount of the training sample, it is possible to build a neural network that determines the condition of the patient according to the data from the mobile phone sensors with a high probability.
Highlights
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, only second after Alzheimer’s disease
Due to neurotransmitter replacement therapy for PD, after a few years, in most cases, the clinical picture of motor disorders is modified, which is manifested by various fluctuations in motor symptoms such as a change in the severity of symptoms during the day depending on dopaminergic therapy, as well as various violent movements

Summary
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, only second after Alzheimer’s disease. The main unresolved tasks for today are: how to simultaneously analyze a wide range of symptoms associated with PD; how to best aggregate and analyze huge volumes of clinically relevant data; in what form should the analysis results be displayed. To solve such problems, it is possible to use neural networks.
