Abstract
This study aimed to predict the index of effectiveness (IE) and positive impulse proportion (PIP) to assess the cyclist’s pedalling technique from lower limb kinematic variables. Several wrapped feature selection techniques were applied to select the best predictors. To predict IE and PIP two multiple linear regressions (MLR) composed of 11 predictors (R² = 0.81 ± 0.12, R² = 0.81 ± 0.05) and two artificial neural networks (ANN) composed of 21 and 28 predictors (R² = 0.95 ± 0.01, R² = 0.92 ± 0.02) were developed. The ANN predicts with accuracy, and the MLR shows the influence of each predictor.
