Categorization of Professional Race Car Drivers Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques
摘要
This research work proposes an innovative approach to categorizing race drivers, diverging from the current FIA regulations. Drivers are assigned a numerical grade on a scale from 1 to 100, where a lower score indicates higher proficiency. This method facilitates a simulation of traditional driver classification, preserving the ‘Pro’ and ‘Am’ categories. Using neural networks implemented in Matlab® Toolbox, the model utilizes 37 driver-specific parameters as input to predict driver grades. Initial results reveal model complexity and a risk of overfitting, suggesting avenues for improvement such as integrating additional car-related parameters or refining driver evaluations.
