Kevin Dames
Kevin Dames, Kinesiology Department, and Sutton Richmond, University of Florida, had an article published in Human Movement Science. The paper, “Good times, bad times? An evaluation of event detection strategies in time to boundary postural assessments” experimentally determined the effects of four algorithmic procedures for determining points of greatest postural instability during quiet standing. Their findings provide a replicable, objective means of eliminating unrealistic events in the continuous time series, which will increase clinical applicability of time to boundary for future work.
