AI framework detects foot anomalies to aid diabetic ulcer prevention

Researchers have developed a baseline feasibility study for an unsupervised anomaly detection framework using wearable foot sensors to help prevent diabetic foot ulcers. The study applied Isolation Forest and K-Nearest Neighbors with Local Outlier Factor algorithms to temperature and pressure data collected from healthy subjects. While both algorithms showed promise, Isolation Forest was more sensitive to subtle anomalies, and a positive correlation between pressure and temperature features suggests the value of multi-modal monitoring.
