✦ Synopsis

We investigate physiological, essential and parkinsonian hand tremor measured by the acceleration of the streched hand. Methods from the theory of dynamical systems and from stochastics are used. It turns out that the physiological tremor can be described as a linear stochastic process, and that the parkinsonian tremor is nonlinear and deterministic, even chaotic. The essential tremor adopts a middle position, it is nonlinear and stochastic.

Tremor is classified into physiological, essential, and parkinsonian tremor by means of clinical criteria. The aim of our work was to extract quantitative features from the measurements of the acceleration of human postural hand tremor. Different mathematical methods were adopted and modified in ord
