A technical validation study ensured algorithm accuracy in both laboratory and real-world settings within the various medical conditions. A clinical validation study ensured that the outcomes of the technical study provided reliable, real-world mobility measurements essential for regulatory approval. Both studies enrolled over 2,000 participants, generating substantial datasets linking mobility changes to health status and treatment outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exploration of Multivariate Heterogeneous Data<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the technical validation study required to identify which among the existing algorithms were the most effective for assessing mobility from these sensors, relative to specific diseases. The data involved in the ranking consists of heterogeneous multivariate data in need of exploration. Such data complexity for exploration purposes consisted our first data visualisation challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We proposed a tool that enables the exploration of multivariate heterogeneous data by combining the strengths of Parallel Coordinates and Parallel Sets. The approach was validated through a usability evaluation, which confirms that the presented design is as efficient as other existing tools while offering additional features for correlation analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"986\" height=\"319\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/files\/2024\/03\/headingFigure.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/files\/2024\/03\/headingFigure.png 986w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/files\/2024\/03\/headingFigure-300x97.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/files\/2024\/03\/headingFigure-768x248.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Parallel Assemblies Plot (PAP), a visualisation metaphor enabling the identification of a correlation between variables disease, period and type of bout and a correlation between the type of bout and bout time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The work was further extended to a fully functional dashboard, allowing the exploration of any multivariate heterogeneous datasets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TVS Data Explorer\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dJSF4cfgGmc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Demonstration of a fully functional dashboard for exploring multivariate heterogeneous datasets.

The project investigated how to give these patients access to their data considering accessibility and sharing restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We examined the challenges of patient-centred mobility data visualisation, drawing insights from the Mobilise-D initiative. We identified key obstacles, including contextual gaps and interpretation challenges, and proposed a structured recommendation framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Team<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/dr-sara-johansson-fernstad\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"83\">Dr Sara Johansson Fernstad<\/a> (researcher), Newcastle University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/dr-alma-cantu\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"124\">Dr Alma Cantu<\/a> (research assistant, then researcher), Newcastle University<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>and members of the Mobilise-D consortium (see authors of the publications).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Partners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/nova\/files\/2025\/05\/Mobilise-consortium-partners.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1026\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Funding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This work was supported by the Mobilise-D project that has received funding from the Innovative Medicines Initiative 2 Joint Undertaking (JU) under grant agreement <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ihi.europa.eu\/projects-results\/project-factsheets\/mobilise-d\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.ihi.europa.eu\/projects-results\/project-factsheets\/mobilise-d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">No. 820820<\/a>.
