Abstract:
According to an aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method for evaluating movement of a subject. The method comprises obtaining a first signal from a first sensor; processing the first signal to determine a value of a quality measure for the first signal; and determining a configuration for a movement evaluation algorithm. The configuration of the movement evaluation algorithm is dependent on the determined value of the quality measure for the first signal such that either or both of a decision threshold of the movement evaluation algorithm is determined based on the determined value of the quality measure; and one or more weightings used in the movement evaluation algorithm for the one or more first features that are to be derived from a signal from the first sensor are determined based on the determined value of the quality measure. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.
