Importance of anthropometric features to predict physical performance in elite youth soccer: a machine learning approach.

Research in sports medicine (Print)
The present study aimed to determine the contribution of soccer players' anthropometric features to predict their physical performance. Sixteen players, from a professional youth soccer academy, were recruited. Several anthropometric features such as...

Using machine learning to improve our understanding of injury risk and prediction in elite male youth football players.

Journal of science and medicine in sport
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to examine whether the use of machine learning improved the ability of a neuromuscular screen to identify injury risk factors in elite male youth football players.

Identifying playing talent in professional football using artificial neural networks.

Journal of sports sciences
The aim of the current study was to objectively identify position-specific key performance indicators in professional football that predict out-field players league status. The sample consisted of 966 out-field players who completed the full 90 minut...

Use of Machine Learning and Wearable Sensors to Predict Energetics and Kinematics of Cutting Maneuvers.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Changes of directions and cutting maneuvers, including 180-degree turns, are common locomotor actions in team sports, implying high mechanical load. While the mechanics and neurophysiology of turns have been extensively studied in laboratory conditio...

Keeping it 100: Social Media and Self-Presentation in College Football Recruiting.

Big data
Social media provides a platform for individuals to craft personal brands and influence their perception by others, including potential employers. Yet there remains a need for more research investigating the relationship between individuals' online i...

A rule induction framework for the determination of representative learning design in skilled performance.

Journal of sports sciences
Representative learning design provides a framework for the extent to which practice simulates key elements of a performance setting. Improving both the measurement and analysis of representative learning design would allow for the refinement of spor...

Artificial neural networks and player recruitment in professional soccer.

PloS one
The aim was to objectively identify key performance indicators in professional soccer that influence outfield players' league status using an artificial neural network. Mean technical performance data were collected from 966 outfield players' (mean S...

Effective injury forecasting in soccer with GPS training data and machine learning.

PloS one
Injuries have a great impact on professional soccer, due to their large influence on team performance and the considerable costs of rehabilitation for players. Existing studies in the literature provide just a preliminary understanding of which facto...

Relationships Between the External and Internal Training Load in Professional Soccer: What Can We Learn From Machine Learning?

International journal of sports physiology and performance
PURPOSE: Machine learning may contribute to understanding the relationship between the external load and internal load in professional soccer. Therefore, the relationship between external load indicators (ELIs) and the rating of perceived exertion (R...

Team activity recognition in Association Football using a Bag-of-Words-based method.

Human movement science
In this paper, a new methodology is used to perform team activity recognition and analysis in Association Football. It is based on pattern recognition and machine learning techniques. In particular, a strategy based on the Bag-of-Words (BoW) techniqu...
