Descripción

This week Will, Andy and special guest Shaun Barratt discuss how machine learning can be paired with computer vision analysis techniques in sports to benefit performance and athlete welfare.   Shaun is a software engineer currently studying for a PhD in the Sports Engineering Research Group at Sheffield Hallam University. His expertise in programming has resulted in apps that can quantify activity without the need for invasive instrumentation. The potential of the work can advise coaches and legislative bodies to benefit and protect athletes. You can find out more about Shaun and his work HERE [https://barratt.phd].

09. Can machine learning help forecast symptoms of ill-being in sport coaching populations with Oliver Rogerson

This week Will, Andy and special guest Oliver Rogerson discuss 'ill-being' and how machine learning can be used to identify burnout within sports coaching contexts. Oli is a first year PhD student at Sheffield Hallam University. His methods involve building awareness of ill-being and is looking at what metrics can be used in a computational model to identify risks and levels of burnout. Oli is active on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliver-rogerson-baa3b0238?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app] so make sure to get in touch if you're interested.
