Inverse Reinforcement Learning for Interpretable Keystroke Biomarkers in Parkinson's Disease

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2606.25270v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Keystroke dynamics offer a passive window into motor function, but existing work extracts aggregate typing statistics and trains classifiers for PD/control discrimination, foregoing interpretability and rarely reporting reliability. We instead apply maximum-entropy inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) to raw keystroke timing, recovering a per-subject speed-preference weight (w_speed) reflecting the implicit cost assigned to fast movement, without any clinical label during fitting. On the neuroQWERTY MIT-CSXPD dataset (85 subjects, 42 PD), we diagnose and correct a feature collinearity failure in an initial four-parameter decomposition, yielding an identifiable three-parameter model. The recovered w_speed correlates with UPDRS-III motor se
