A Random Forest Machine Learning Framework to Reduce Running Injuries in Young Triathletes.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
BACKGROUND: The running segment of a triathlon produces 70% of the lower limb injuries. Previous research has shown a clear association between kinematic patterns and specific injuries during running.

On-field player workload exposure and knee injury risk monitoring via deep learning.

Journal of biomechanics
In sports analytics, an understanding of accurate on-field 3D knee joint moments (KJM) could provide an early warning system for athlete workload exposure and knee injury risk. Traditionally, this analysis has relied on captive laboratory force plate...

Intelligent prediction of kinetic parameters during cutting manoeuvres.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Due to its capabilities in analysing injury risk, the ability to analyse an athlete's ground reaction force and joint moments is of high interest in sports biomechanics. However, using force plates for the kinetic measurements influences the athlete'...

Cocoa flavanol effects on markers of oxidative stress and recovery after muscle damage protocol in elite rugby players.

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.)
OBJECTIVES: Strenuous exercise can impair athletic performance due to muscular inflammation and oxidative stress. Antioxidants such as cocoa flavanols have been used as a supplement to prevent oxidative stress; however, the benefits of dietary antiox...

Predicting Athlete Ground Reaction Forces and Moments From Spatio-Temporal Driven CNN Models.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The accurate prediction of three-dimensional (3-D) ground reaction forces and moments (GRF/Ms) outside the laboratory setting would represent a watershed for on-field biomechanical analysis. To extricate the biomechanist's reliance on ground embedded...

Test-retest reliability of the KINARM end-point robot for assessment of sensory, motor and neurocognitive function in young adult athletes.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Current assessment tools for sport-related concussion are limited by a reliance on subjective interpretation and patient symptom reporting. Robotic assessments may provide more objective and precise measures of neurological function than ...

Automatic Classification of Sub-Techniques in Classical Cross-Country Skiing Using a Machine Learning Algorithm on Micro-Sensor Data.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The automatic classification of sub-techniques in classical cross-country skiing provides unique possibilities for analyzing the biomechanical aspects of outdoor skiing. This is currently possible due to the miniaturization and flexibility of wearabl...

The Association of Vitamin D Status in Lower Extremity Muscle Strains and Core Muscle Injuries at the National Football League Combine.

Arthroscopy : the journal of arthroscopic & related surgery : official publication of the Arthroscopy Association of North America and the International Arthroscopy Association
PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between serum vitamin D level and the prevalence of lower extremity muscle strains and core muscle injuries in elite level athletes at the National Football League (NFL) combine.

Effects of carbohydrate mouth rinse and caffeine on high-intensity interval running in a fed state.

Applied physiology, nutrition, and metabolism = Physiologie appliquee, nutrition et metabolisme
The current study aims to identify if mouth rinsing with a 6% carbohydrate mouth-rinse (CMR) solution and mouth rinsing and ingestion of caffeine (CMR+CAFF) can affect exercise performance during steady-state (SS) running and high-intensity intervals...

The identification of high potential archers based on fitness and motor ability variables: A Support Vector Machine approach.

Human movement science
Support Vector Machine (SVM) has been shown to be an effective learning algorithm for classification and prediction. However, the application of SVM for prediction and classification in specific sport has rarely been used to quantify/discriminate low...
