class pyCGM2.Processing.DiscretePoints.discretePointProcedures.GoldbergProcedure(pointSuffix: str | None = None)#

Implements discrete point extraction as recommended by Goldberg et al. (2006).

This procedure is particularly designed for knee kinetics and kinematics analysis.

Parameters:

pointSuffix (Optional[str]) – Suffix to be added to model outputs.
