SmartSwim: A novel approach to swimming analysis and coaching assistance based on wearable inertial sensors

Mahdi Hamidi Rad

As one of the three most popular sports in the Summer Olympics, competitive swimming has always been an attractive subject of study for sports scientists. The intricate nature of the swimmer's movements and the variety of techniques have led coaches to req ...

Swimming phase-based performance evaluation using a single IMU in front crawl

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Mahdi Hamidi Rad, Vincent Gremeaux

The purpose of this study was to assess the potential of using a sacrum-worn inertial measurement unit (IMU) for performance evaluation in each swimming phase (wall push-off, glide, stroke preparation, and swimming) of national-level swimmers in front craw ...

Swimming Phase-Based Performance Evaluation Using a Single IMU in Main Swimming Techniques

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Fabien Massé, Mahdi Hamidi Rad, Vincent Gremeaux

Comprehensive monitoring of performance is essential for swimmers and swimming coaches to optimize the training. Regardless of the swimming technique, the swimmer passes various swimming phases from wall to wall, including a dive into the water or wall pus ...

Une approche computationnelle du cadastre napoléonien de Venise

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo, Raphaël Barman, Federica Pardini

At the beginning of the 19th century, the Napoleonic administration introduced a new standardised description system to give an objective account of the form and functions of the city of Venice. The cadastre, deployed on a European scale, was offering for ...

Gait in real world: validated algorithms for gait periods and speed estimation using a single wearable sensor

Abolfazl Soltani

Mobility concerns most daily tasks (e.g., householding, shopping), affecting life quality. Gait speed, recognized as the sixth vital sign, is a key to characterize mobility. It is also a primary outcome of many clinical interventions. Monitoring gait in un ...
