Abstract Progressive gait impairment is common in aging adults. Remote phenotyping of gait during daily living has the potential to quantify gait alterations and evaluate the effects of interventions that may prevent disability in the aging population. Here, we developed ElderNet, a self-supervised learning model for gait detection from wrist-worn accelerometer data. Validation involved two diverse cohorts, including over 1,000 participants without gait labels, as well as 83 participants with labeled data: older adults with Parkinson's disease, proximal femoral fracture, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure, and healthy adults. ElderNet presented high accuracy (96.43 ± 2.27), specificity (98.87 ± 2.15), recall (82.32 ± 11.37), precision (86.69 ± 17.61), and F1 score (82.92 ± 13.39). The suggested method yielded superior performance compared to two state-of-the-art gait detection algorithms, with improved accuracy and F1 score (p
