1. Does attentional focus influence performance and motor control on a gross motor task performed with the legs among healthy individuals and individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction? : A within subject design pilot study
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för samhällsmedicin och rehabiliteringAbstract : Background: Evidence indicates that an external focus (EF) of attention on the intended effect of one’s movement results in better motor performance and motor control than an internal focus (IF) on one’s own body. Despite this, an IF is predominantly encouraged through instructions and feedback provided by clinicians during sports and rehabilitation from injuries such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

2. Supervised classification for human movement data : A comparative study of functional and traditional methods
University essay from Umeå universitet/StatistikAbstract : Functional data analysis (FDA) has a growing importance in statistics, especially in disciplines like biomechanics, where it is common to observe data over time. The objective of this thesis is to employ FDA techniques and compare the classification performance of supervised classification models utilizing functional data with the same models using a discrete summary measurement (max-values) as input.

3. AUGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF TIME SERIES FOR FINDING ACL INJURIES
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : This thesis addresses the problem where we want to apply machine learning over a small data set of multivariate time series. A challenge when classifying data is when the data set is small and overfitting is at risk. Augmentation of small data sets might avoid overfitting. READ MORE

4. Does movement quality 6 months post ACL reconstructive surgery indicate the perceived functional abilities 2 years later?
University essay from Lunds universitet/Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabiliteringAbstract : Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common, especially among athletes. The injury often leaves the patient with consequences, such as affected postural orientation, impaired functional performance, and muscle weakness, even after rehabilitation is completed. READ MORE
