After weeks of focused development, I'm thrilled to share a project that's the culmination of my journey with player prediction models, from multi-linear regression to the advanced capabilities of XGBoost. Introducing MomentumAI—an AI-powered player scouting engine designed to give football clubs of all tiers a competitive edge. This isn't just a model; it's a dynamic, intuitive tool that streamlines talent acquisition. The prototype is live, and a full demo is launching soon!
