As excitement builds up for the UEFA Euro 2024, data scientists predict highest winning chances for France, using refined machine learning.
As millions of fans await Friday’s kickoff of the UEFA Euro 2024, the big question is: who among the teams will succeed, who will drop out, and who will eventually prevail?
Since 2018, Prof. Christophe Ley from the Department of Mathematics at the University of Luxembourg, together with a group of European scientists, works on machine learning combinations to predict outcomes of all possible matches in football tournaments, and therefore winners of the tournaments. This year, he has been joined in this endeavour by his doctoral candidate Florian Felice from the Department of Mathematics. ...
