Freezing of gait (FOG) is a debilitating symptom in Parkinson's disease. This study organized a machine-learning contest to develop wearable sensor-based FOG detection algorithms. 1,379 teams submitted 24,862 solutions. Winning solutions demonstrated high accuracy and revealed previously unobserved patterns in daily living FOG occurrences, highlighting the potential of machine learning contests for addressing critical medical challenges.
