Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to verify the reliability of estimating ballet dancers’ postural stability during the unshod and the en pointe relevé position with a smartphone application Methods The participants (13 ballet dancers, 22.4 ± 2.5 years of age) were tested in the unshod and the en pointe relevé position (YMED Balance Test application, smartphone secured at the L5 level for centre of mass approximation, 10 trials for each condition, 10 seconds per trial, 2-minute intertrial break, arms relaxed at bodyside, gaze fixated at an eye-level target, preferred feet width and orientation). Paired t-tests examined the inter-condition differences. Relative (intraclass correlation coefficient, ICC) and absolute (standard error of measurement, SEM, SEM%) reliability indices (for accumulated and paired trials) were computed for each condition (SPSS software v. 26.0, <i>p</i> < 0.05). Results The total balance score and all centre of mass spatial measures indicated worse postural stability in the en pointe condition (<i>p</i> < 0.05), with no significant temporal differences (<i>p</i> > 0.05). The total body balance score was the most reliable measure (good to excellent ICC s, low to moderate SEM%) with a minimum of 8 trials ensuring reliability in both the unshod and the en pointe relevé positions. Conclusions Taken a minimum of 8 trials and the measure of total balance score, we may obtain a reliable estimation of ballet dancers’ postural stability in the unshod and the en pointe relevé position by using the YMED Balance Test smartphone application.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
