Time: 12:30 - 13:15
Location: Online
Join us to see how to use AI and machine learning to build the best Fantasy Football team in the World (...probably).
Built upon a previously delivered Tech Talk, Principal Software Engineer, Owen Lacey, will once again guide us through building a winning Fantasy Football team using AI and machine learning, leveraging Azure Machine Learning and Google OR Tools.
Owen will demonstrate how to use Azure Machine Learning, with this example showing how to determine a players “predicted points”, as well as how to use Google OR Tools to select a team, maximising the predicted points outputted by Azure Machine Learning.
This session is designed for tech leaders, machine learning enthusiasts and data analysts, whether you’re a Fantasy Football aficionado or not, who want to leverage advanced AI and machine learning optimisation techniques to gain a competitive edge.
You will learn how to apply mathematical modeling and optimisation algorithms to make informed decisions based on player statistics, performance metrics, and budget constraints.
