  1. 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 rehabilitering

    Author : Leon Haegerström; Jens Jakobsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Attentional focus; External focus; Internal focus; Motor contor; Motor performance; Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction;

    Abstract : 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. 2. Supervised classification for human movement data : A comparative study of functional and traditional methods

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Statistik

    Author : Markus Lindvall; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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. 3. AUGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF TIME SERIES FOR FINDING ACL INJURIES

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Marie-Louise Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : computer science; machine learning; motion analysis; reconstructed ACL; anterior cruciate ligament; time series forest; dynamic time wapring; ACL; multivariate time series clasification; MTSC; time series classification; TSC; euclidean barycentric average; euclidean barycentric averaging; autmentation of time series; augmentation of multivariate time series; data augmentation; augmentation;

    Abstract : 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. 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 rehabilitering

    Author : Julia Larsson; Erika Zeraidi; [2021]
    Keywords : Anterior Cruciate Ligament; Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction; Postural Orientation; Postural Orientation Errors; Patient Reported Outcome Measures; Rehabilitation; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : 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

  5. 5. Knee joint threshold to detect passive motion tests for anterior cruciate ligament injury : A systematic review of tests and their properties

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för fysioterapi

    Author : Klara Olsson; Ida Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduktion: Vid en främre korsbandsskada sker en förlust av proprioceptorer i knät, något som anses kunna leda till ökad risk för sekundära skador. Tester som bedömer tröskelvärde för att detektera passiv ledrörelse (TTDPM) används ofta för att undersöka proprioceptionen i knäleden men deras psykometriska mätegenskaper (PMPs) är ej fastställda.
