Canoe slalom competition analysis

Sports Biomechanics, 2008
The aim of this study was to quantify the differences between groups of elite canoe slalom athletes based on the class they paddle in and the strategies they use in competition. Canoe and kayak footage was recorded using three cameras and analysed using lapsed-time time-motion analysis.

Principal Components Analysis Competitive Learning

Neural Computation, 2004
We present a new neural model that extends the classical competitive learning by performing a principal components analysis (PCA) at each neuron. This model represents an improvement with respect to known local PCA methods, because it is not needed to present the entire data set to the network on each computing step. This allows a fast execution while

Resource-competitive analysis

Proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Foundations of Mobile Computing, 2012
In the spirit of competitive analysis, approximation guarantees, and game-theoretic treatments, we introduce an approach to evaluating the performance of attack-resistant algorithms in distributed systems. This new approach, which we call resource-competitive analysis, is concerned with the worst-case ratio of the cost incurred by an algorithm to the ...

Demystifying competitive analysis

Planning Review, 1987
The value of competitive intelligence is recognized by everyone from CEOs to line managers. However, very few firms actively link their planning process with their competitive analysis. Moreover, managers in those few firms that do have an active competitive intelligence program are often disappointed with the quality of information they receive.

Canoe slalom – competition analysis reliability

Sports Biomechanics, 2007
The aim of this study was to assess intra-observer and inter-observer reliability of data gathered from a lapsed-time time-motion analysis of canoe slalom competition. The data were collected using a definition set developed in conjunction with elite canoe slalom coaches.

Historical Document Layout Analysis Competition

2011 International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition, 2011
This paper presents an objective comparative evaluation of layout analysis methods for scanned historical documents. It describes the competition (modus operandi, dataset and evaluation methodology) held in the context of ICDAR2011 and the International Workshop on Historical Document Imaging and Processing (HIP2011), presenting the results of the ...

Tork Corporation: Competitive-Cost Analysis

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
This disguised case examines the issue of outsourcing to a low-cost country based on a thorough analysis of competitive cost drivers. The case demonstrates that labor cost is only one potential advantage and that transportation cost and other factors could more than offset labor savings in some product lines.
