Simulated reality predicts West Ham’s fate

|

A supercomputer has predicted the final standing of the Premier League with the aid of artificial intelligence.

It predicts West Ham will finish in 16th position with 38 points.

Werner Becher, MD of Sportradar, explains how they worked out the results: “Simulated Reality is completely driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning.

“The technology uses our historic database to create a huge number of different game situations, outcomes and game plays.

“Simulated Reality football matches reflect team form and normal match conditions, using a decade’s worth of historic and statistical data to produce an immeasurable number of data points. We have created a product that truly reflects the fan experience when watching and betting on a real game. It is completely new and unique to the industry.

“Simulated Reality gives us the opportunity to model how real games would take place as they would happen in real stadiums, which we think is incredibly exciting for fans.”
