The purpose was to analyze and compare the predictive ability of a range of machine learning techniques to select the best performing injury risk factor model to identify professional soccer players at high risk of HSIs. A total of 96 male professional soccer players underwent a pre-season screening evaluation that included a large number of individual, psychological and neuromuscular measurements. Injury surveillance was prospectively employed to capture all the HSI occurring in the 2013\/2014 season. There were 18 HSIs. Injury distribution was 55.6% dominant leg and 44.4% non-dominant leg. The model generated by the SmooteBoostM1 technique with a cost-sensitive ADTree as the base classifier reported the best evaluation criteria (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve score=0.837, true positive rate=77.8%, true negative rate=83.8%) and hence was considered the best for predicting HSI. The prediction model showed moderate to high accuracy for identifying professional soccer players at risk of HSI during pre-season screenings. Therefore, the model developed might help coaches, physical trainers and medical practitioners in the decision-making process for injury prevention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-0826-1955","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,14]],"date-time":"2019-03-14T20:08:54Z","timestamp":1552594134000},"page":"344-353","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":103,"title":["A Preventive Model for Hamstring Injuries in Professional Soccer: Learning Algorithms"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Francisco","family":"Ayala","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Science, Sport Research Centre, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche, Elche (Alicante), Spain."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alejandro","family":"L\u00f3pez-Valenciano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Science, Sport Research Centre, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche, Elche (Alicante), Spain."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jose Antonio","family":"G\u00e1mez Mart\u00edn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Inform\u00e1tica, Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, Albacete, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"De Ste Croix","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Sport and Exercise, University of Gloucestershire, Gloucester, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Francisco","family":"Vera-Garcia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Science, Sport Research Centre, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche, Elche (Alicante), Spain."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Garc\u00eda-Vaquero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Science, Sport Research Centre, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche, Elche (Alicante), Spain."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"I\u00f1aki","family":"Ruiz-P\u00e9rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Science, Sport Research Centre, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche, Elche (Alicante), Spain."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gregory","family":"Myer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The SPORT Center, Division of Sports Medicine, Cincinnati Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, United States"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics and Orthopaedic Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio, United States"},{"name":"The Micheli Center for Sports Injury Prevention, Waltham, MA, United States"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,14]]},"container-title":["International Journal of Sports Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/a-0826-1955.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,3]],"date-time":"2019-05-03T18:56:22Z","timestamp":1556909782000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/a-0826-1955"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,14]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"05","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,3]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,5]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-0826-1955","relation":{},"ISSN":["0172-4622","1439-3964"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0172-4622","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-3964","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,14]]}}}
