This study aimed to propose a simple and reliable method that can be used for daily in-home monitoring of frailty and cognitivedysfunction in the elderly based on their walking-in-place characteristics. Fifty-four community-dwelling elderly people aged 65 years or older participated in this study. The participants were categorized into the robust and the non-robust groups according to the FRAIL scale. The mini-mental state examination was used to classify the cognitive impairment and the non-cognitive impairment groups. The 3-axis acceleration and the 3-axis angular velocity signals were measured using the inertial measurement units attached to the foot, shank, thigh, and posterior pelvis while each participant was walking in place for 20 seconds. The walking-in-place spectrograms were acquired by applying time-frequency analysis to the lower body movement signals measured in one stride. Four-fold crossvalidation was applied to 80% of the total samples and the remaining 20% were used as test data. The deep convolutional neural network-based classifiers trained with the walking-inplace spectrograms enabled to categorize the robust and the non robust groups with 94.63% accuracy and classify the cognitive impairment and the non-cognitive impairment groups with 97.59% accuracy. This study suggests that the walking-in-place spectrograms, which can be obtained without spacious experimental space, cumbersome equipment, and laborious processes, are effective indicators of frailty and cognitive dysfunction in the elderly.
