Segment-Level Risk Discovery in Online Handwriting for Alzheimer's Disease Detection

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.29384v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Online handwriting provides a non-invasive and low-cost behavioral biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD) detection, as it reflects both cognitive planning and fine motor control. Existing handwriting-based AD detection methods usually rely on global trajectory features or whole-sample representations, which can be strongly affected by individual writing style, task-specific variation, and acquisition noise. In this paper, we propose NormPaST-Risk, a healthy-normative Paper-Air selective trajectory state-space risk network for interpretable AD detection from online handwriting. Instead of treating the entire trajectory as a single holistic representation, our method reformulates AD handwriting detection as local disease-relevant seg
