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.

The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Gravitational Microlensing Detection for Dark Matter Discoveries

This research utilizes Artificial Intelligence to enhance the speed and accuracy of microlensing detection using data from 600,000 stars observed by The Zwicky Transient Facility. Through comparative analysis and hyperparameter tuning, the KNN model was identified as the most accurate, achieving 97% accuracy in detecting microlensing events, which may include dark matter, within the Milky Way.
