Machine Learning Case Study Humanizing Data for Purposeful Change AArete.com | 312.585.0800 SITUATION APPROACH RESULTS A professional sports team approached AArete to enhance their decision making processes specific to predicting a player’s future potential for success. The team’s existing evaluation strategy relied heavily on scouting reports and basic forecasting methods (such as linear regression) on limited, high-level data. The goal of working with AArete was to develop a machine learning model to enhance player evaluation approach. In order to develop a custom predictive model, AArete worked closely with the client to understand how they defined player success. From there, we determined the appropriate way to translate this definition into a variable to be used in the model.
