Abstract

A method of generating an outcome for a sporting event is disclosed herein. A computing system retrieves tracking data from a data store. The computing system generates a predictive model using a deep neural network. The one or more neural networks of the deep neural network generates one or more embeddings comprising team-specific information and agent-specific information based on the tracking data. The computing system selects, from the tracking data, one or more features related to a current context of the sporting event. The computing system learns, by the deep neural network, one or more likely outcomes of one or more sporting events. The computing system receives a pre-match lineup for the sporting event. The computing system generates, via the predictive model, a likely outcome of the sporting event based on historical information of each agent for the home team, each agent for the away team, and team-specific features.
