Mateus Gheorghe de Castro Ribeiro is a PhD candidate in the Stanford Sustainable Systems Lab. He has worked on various topics at the intersection of engineering applications and artificial intelligence (AI). His main area of research focuses on AI applied to sustainable energy systems, specifically using data-driven methods to accelerate the electrification of bus fleets, ensure reliable operations with minimal costs, and achieve 24/7 carbon-free operations. Mateus obtained his bachelor's and master's degrees in mechanical engineering from the Federal University of Juiz de Fora and the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, respectively. In 2022, he was awarded the CAPES/Fulbright Scholarship to pursue his PhD in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University.

    Abstract

    The purpose of the present study was to identify the performance determinant factors predicting 15-m backstroke-to-breaststroke turning performance using and comparing linear and tree-based machine-learning models. The temporal, kinematic, kinetic and hydrodynamic variables were collected from 18 age-group swimmers (12.08 ± 0.17 yrs) using 23 Qualisys cameras, two tri-axial underwater force plates and inverse dynamics approach. The best models were obtained: (i) with Lasso linear model of the leave-one-out cross-validation in open turn (MSE = 0.011; R2 = 0.825) and in the somersault turn (MSE = 0.016; R2 = 0.734); (ii) the Ridge of the leave-one-out cross-validation (MSE = 0.016; R2 = 0.763) for the bucket turn; and (iii) the AdaBoost tree-based model of the leave-one-out cross-validation for the crossover turn (MSE = 0.016; R2 = 0.644). Model's selected features revealed that optimum turning performance was very similarly determined for the different techniques, with balanced contributions between turn-in and turn-out variables. As a result, the relevant feature's contribution of each backstroke-to-breaststroke turning technique are specific; developing approaching speed in conjunction with proper gliding posture and pull-out strategy will result in improved turning performance, and may influence differently the development of specific training intervention programmes.
