A New Approach to Quantify Soccer Players’ Readiness through Machine Learning Techniques
Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2023 Previous studies have shown that variation in PlayerLoad (PL) could be used to detect fatigue in soccer players. Machine learning techniques (ML) were used to develop a new locomotor efficiency index (LEI) based on the prediction of PL.
