Using artificial intelligence to predict the next deceptive movement based on video sequence analysis: A case study on a professional cricket player's movements

This research develops an artificial intelligence-based model to predict the next deceptive movement of athletes
by analyzing video sequences of previous movements. Utilizing advanced deep neural network models, we analyze deceptive movements to forecast the next move, with a practical application on the deceptive movements of a professional cricket player. The model employs machine learning techniques such as Random Forest (RF), Decision Trees (DT), and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) to enhance prediction accuracy. Achieving up to 70 % accuracy, this model rivals human capability, as even highly skilled players can easily fall for deceptive actions. The ability to predict deceptive movements sets humans apart from many intelligent creatures, allowing athletes to avoid predictable actions and gain an edge in various sports. This study applies this concept to cricket, leveraging video data to improve training methods. The results highlight the potential of artificial intelligence in revolutionizing training and performance optimization in sports.
