Abstract
|
|
|
|
| We study the feasibility of applying machine learning to predict the performance of road cyclists using publicly available data. The performance is investigated by predicting the presence or absence in the top places of next year’s ranking based on a rider’s characteristics and results in the current and previous years. We apply several classification algorithms and obtain that random forest is the best-performing model. Our work is a first step towards creating personalised performance models in professional road cycling. |
