Table 6.

List of statistical analyses and performance metrics that will be used for the various digital mobility outcomes (DMOs)

DMO Performance metric Criterion validity Plots
Sensitivity Positive predictive value Accuracy Specificity F1-score Error (absolute and relative) SD & max of error Root mean squared error Precision Concurrent validity (ICC) Significant difference Limit of agreement Bland altman plots Scatter plots for correlation Histogram plots
Number of walking bouts
WB start
WB end
WB duration

Walking speed
Number of turns
Turn start

Sequence order

Performance metrics and criterion validity are those that will be used to compare DMOs obtained from a single device versus those obtained from the reference system. The types of plots listed in the table will be used to visualise performance metrics and to support interpretation of the results.

ICC, intraclass correlation coefficients; WB, walking bouts.
