TABLE 4.

Summary of the definition of the dynamic features. All the listed ML features can also be computed for the AP axis. For units, cm stands for centimeter, s for seconds, Hz for Hertz, and − for unitless. *: This feature is obtained by summing non‐homogeneous term, and therefore has no valid units
