Abbreviations: Sensor, accelerometers (Acc), inertial measurement units (IMUs), pressure sensing units (PSUs). Sensor Location, the position of sensors, Multi means multiple sensors located chest, waist, knee, ankle, and so on. Cues, auditory (A), somatosensory (S), visual (V). CP, cellphone used to collect data and run algorithms. Algorithm, machine learning (ML), number of features employed (Nf). Data, total number of subjects (Subjects), the total number of FoG occurrence (FoG). Performance, sensitivity (Sens), specificity (Spec), Accuracy (Accu). The value of accuracy lies between the values of sensitivity and specificity. Split, Split the dataset into a training and testing set.
