Predicting Running Injuries with Machine Learning Models

Is it possible to predict running injuries with only a dataset and machine learning models? This paper explores this question by using classification models, including the Logistic Regression model and the Random Forest Classifier model.


Is it possible to predict running injuries with only a dataset and machine learning models? This paper explores this question by using classification models, including the Logistic Regression model and the Random Forest Classifier model. In the dataset used, ten features were taken into account when predicting running injuries. With slight modifications, the Weighted Logistic Regression and over and down-sampling Random Forest Classifier models were used to mitigate the imbalance in the dataset. The results suggested that the best model was Weighted Logistic Regression and that the best score metric to take into account was the F beta score.

Stellar Classification based on Numerous Characteristics using Machine Learning

The task of stellar classification can be tedious and lengthy when done manually. One can expedite stellar classification by creating an artificial intelligence model to automate the process. The current stellar classification model serves to effectively categorize stars for research purposes regarding their distribution around the universe, so automating the development of this resource would allow professionals to allocate more time to explore the bounds of our current understanding of space and the universe. After finding and analyzing a dataset containing numerical and categorical features, a supervised learning approach was then used to train and test different models on their ability to classify the stars in the given test set. A Decision Tree Classifier, Random Forest Classifier, Ridge Classifier, and Support Vector Classifier were trained and tested using the data.

A Hybrid CNN-LSTM Model For Predicting Solar Cycle 25

The goal of this study is to predict Solar Cycle 25 through the deep learning approach,and determine what parameters affect prediction accuracy and what the optimal number of historical solar cycles are used to reliably and accurately predict the upcoming solar cycle. The solar cycle predictions will help us prepare ahead of time for future solar activity.
