Abstract(in English) In clinical examination of ataxia, method of the quantitative analysis has been least established, and thus we have previously developed a computerized system for measuring and evaluating the upper-limb movement function. Based on parameter values measured by using this system, we could find the statistically significant differences between normal subjects and the patients suffering from the Parkinson's disease (PD) or the spinocerebeller degeneration (SCD), and subsequently, we developed a hybrid artificial neural network (HNN) model [consisting of a self-organizing map (SOM) followed by a backpropagation neural network (BNN)] which can automatically discriminate between the normal subjects and either the PD or SCD patients. In the present study, a two-dimensional SOM and a three-dimensional SOM was constructed by the learning simultaneously the three parameter sets from normal subjects, PD patients, SCD patients. The structures of those SOMs suggested a hightly variable nature of ataxia even within PD or SCD patients.
