# Parkinson's Disease Classifier

[Adrian Rosebrock](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adrian-rosebrock-59b8732a) of [PyImageSearch](https://pyimagesearch.com/) recently released a brand new tutorial: [Detecting Parkinson’s Disease with OpenCV, Computer Vision, and the Spiral/Wave Test](https://www.pyimagesearch.com/2019/04/29/detecting-parkinsons-disease-with-opencv-computer-vision-and-the-spiral-wave-test/)
which shows how to automatically detect Parkinson’s disease in hand-drawn images of spirals and waves. Adrian used classical
computer vision techniques like _Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG)_ for quantifying the features of the images and
used them to train a _Random Forest Classifier_. He got an accuracy of **83.33%**.

I decided to apply deep learning to this problem and see if I can push the score. To see if I was able to do this, I would request you to take a look at the accompanying notebook [here](https://github.com/sayakpaul/Parkinson-s-Disease-Classifier/blob/master/Parkinson_s_Disease_Classifier.ipynb).

**Note** that, the data was provided along with the PyImageSearch tutorial mentioned above. In order to make the folder structure more convenient for myself, I arranged it in the following way:

Whereas, Adrian's arrangment was a bit different:
