Athlete Monitoring: Data Analysis and Visualization
Introduction – Part 1
In this first module, I will (hopefully) provide a “Big Picture” overview of what athlete monitoring is, as well as introduce a few theoretical models that guide my rationale and inferences.In the first video, I will introduce the Circular Causal Model (see figure below) and Circular Performance Model. Funny enough, I just noticed how similar they are, although they cover different phenomena. I also touch on the topic of transparency of theory – hence the reason why I shared these models, so you can easily see where my ideas are coming from.
I have also provided an extensive list of resources, not only for this lecture but for the whole course. I will continue adding resources underneath each lecture if needed.
