A novel approach to study human posture control: “Principal movements” obtained from a principal component analysis of kinematic marker data

Human upright posture is maintained by postural movements, which can be quantified by “principal movements” (PMs) obtained through a principal component analysis (PCA) of kinematic marker data. The current study expands the concept of “principal movements” in analogy to Newton׳s mechanics by definin...
