Applications of Neural Networks

Neural Networks in Recreation and Sports

Neural networks have even found uses in recreation and sport! The ability of neural networks to evaluate data and make predictions have made them particularly useful in gambling.

Thoroughbred Horse Racing with Neural Networks

Don Emmon's used a neural network to pick the winning horse in 17 out of 22 thoroughbred races at Detroit Race Course. His network looked at each horse individually using information about previous performance, weight etc. to choose the three horses most likely to win the race.

Dog Racing with Neural Networks

Derek Anderson used neural networks to help pick winning dogs at the racetrack. He trained the networks with over two months of data from the racetrack and then places a bet only if the network paces one dog considerably higher than another. Using this method, he claims over 90% accuracy.
