Abstract
A system and method of predicting a team's formation on a playing surface are disclosed herein. A computing system retrieves one or more sets of event data for a plurality of events. Each set of event data corresponds to a segment of the event. A deep neural network, such as a mixture density network, learns to predict an optimal permutation of players in each segment of the event based on the one or more sets of event data. The deep neural network learns a distribution of players for each segment based on the corresponding event data and optimal permutation of players. The computing system generates a fully trained prediction model based on the learning. The computing system receives target event data corresponding to a target event. The computing system generates, via the trained prediction model, an expected position of each player based on the target event data.
