Abstract
PURPOSE: Optimal performance in military tasks is crucial for operational success. These tasks are often simulated in training, assessing personnel performance within a military environment. However, these assessments are time-consuming and a potential injury risk. Physical characteristics such as muscular strength, power, aerobic endurance, and circumferences can be used to predict these dynamic and demanding tasks. Utilizing machine learning models to predict assessment outcomes may lead to optimized management of personnel, time, and interventions in the military.
