New article in @newscientist.com by @stokel.bsky.social based on our paper on predicting penalty shot direction, accepted at @iciapconf. Huge thanks to @stokel.bsky.social for his kindness and professionalism.
Goalkeepers struggle to predict which way a penalty taker will shoot - but an AI can do better.
AI beats goalkeepers at predicting which way penalty taker will shoot
By analysing videos of penalty kicks, a deep learning model was able to predict whether a shot would go to the goalkeeper’s left or right with 64 per cent accuracy
