Predicting Basketball Shot Outcome From Visuomotor Control Data Using Explainable Machine Learning.

Journal of sport & exercise psychology
Quiet eye (QE), the visual fixation on a target before initiation of a critical action, is associated with improved performance. While QE is trainable, it is unclear whether QE can directly predict performance, which has implications for training int...

Using machine learning to determine the nationalities of the fastest 100-mile ultra-marathoners and identify top racing events.

PloS one
The present study intended to determine the nationality of the fastest 100-mile ultra-marathoners and the country/events where the fastest 100-mile races are held. A machine learning model based on the XG Boost algorithm was built to predict the runn...

Integration of machine learning XGBoost and SHAP models for NBA game outcome prediction and quantitative analysis methodology.

PloS one
This study investigated the application of artificial intelligence in real-time prediction of professional basketball games, identifying the variations within performance indicators that are critical in determining the outcomes of the games. Utilizin...

The role of morphometric characteristics in predicting 20-meter sprint performance through machine learning.

Scientific reports
The aim of this study was to test the morphometric features affecting 20-m sprint performance in children at the first level of primary education using machine learning (ML) algorithms. In this study, 130 male and 152 female volunteers aged between 6...

Identifying Key Training Load and Intensity Indicators in Ice Hockey Using Unsupervised Machine Learning.

Research quarterly for exercise and sport
To identify key training load (TL) and intensity indicators in ice hockey, practice, and game data were collected using a wearable 200-Hz accelerometer and heart rate (HR) recording throughout a four-week (29 days) competitive period (23 practice ses...

HoopTransformer: Advancing NBA Offensive Play Recognition with Self-Supervised Learning from Player Trajectories.

Sports medicine (Auckland, N.Z.)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Understanding and recognizing basketball offensive set plays, which involve intricate interactions between players, have always been regarded as challenging tasks for untrained humans, not to mention machines. In this study,...

Who are the best passing players in professional soccer? A machine learning approach for classifying passes with different levels of difficulty and discriminating the best passing players.

PloS one
The present study aimed to assess the use of technical-tactical variables and machine learning (ML) classifiers in the automatic classification of the passing difficulty (DP) level in soccer matches and to illustrate the use of the model with the bes...

Systematic training of table tennis players' physical performance based on artificial intelligence technology and data fusion of sensing devices.

SLAS technology
This research emphasises the value of physical training for table tennis players, particularly as ball speed and spin rate decline and emphasises how important intensity quality is to the game. Chinese table tennis players' dual identities place grea...
