Levodopa, a drug used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease, is connected to side effects known as Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID). LID is difficult to classify during a physician's visit. A wearable device allowing long-term and continuous classification would significantly help with dosage adjustments. This paper deals with an automated design of energy-efficient hardware accelerators for such LID classifiers. The proposed accelerator consists of a feature extractor and a classifier co-designed using genetic programming. Improvements are achieved by introducing a variable bit width for arithmetic operators, eliminating redundant registers, and using precise energy consumption estimation for Pareto front creation. Evolved solutions reduce energy consumption while maintaining classification accuracy comparable to the state of the art.
