 ABSTRACT

This comprehensive study employs logistic regression and random forest analysis to
delve into 120 years of Olympic Games data, spanning from 1896to 2016. By utilizing
these advanced statistical techniques, we aim to predict medal-winning probabilities for
countries while considering a multitude of factors, including population size, host country
advantage, historical performance, and more. This analysis provides valuable insights
into the intricate interplay of factors influencing a nation's performance in the world's
most prestigious sporting event, shedding light on the ever-changing landscape of global
sports dominance The project offers the best approach to the model with the accuracy of
0.89.

1. Title of the Project

Title: 120 years of Olympics Dataset Using data science algorithms

2. Statement about the Problem

The questions posed by the Olympic 120 Years Dataset are complex and fascinating,
providing a unique opportunity to analyze and understand a century of Olympic history.
Researchers and data scientists can explore a wide range of questions and challenges
within this dataset, predictive modeling, and ethical considerations. By leveraging this
rich dataset, we can uncover historical trends, make predictions about future Olympic
events, and gain valuable insight into the evolution of sports, athletes, and countries'
performance on the world stage

3. Significance of the Project

The project involving the application of logistic regression to the "120 Years of
Olympics" dataset holds significant importance as it combines the power of data analytics
with the historical legacy of the Olympic Games. By employing logistic regression,
researchers can unravel intricate patterns and relationships within this extensive dataset,
particularly in the context of predicting medal outcomes. Logistic regression can uncover
factors that influence an athlete's likelihood of winning a medal, providing insights into the
nuanced dynamics of theOlympics.

4. Objective
The objectives of analyzing the "120 Years of Olympics" dataset using logistic regression
and Random Forest are to predict future medal winners, understand historical trends in
Olympic performance, assess the influence of athlete demographics, evaluate the impact
of hosting the Olympics, promote fairness and inclusivity, allocate resources effectively,
and uncover insightsinto the evolution of Olympic participation.
 5. Scope
The scope of this project encompasses the following aspects:

• Data collection from diverse product categories.

• Preprocessing and cleaning of the collected data.
• Development and training of a logistic regression model and random forest.
• Comparative analysis of performance across different sports categories.
• Presentation of results and insights.

 6. Data Collection and Methodology

Data Collection is one of the most important aspects in Data Analysis. The dataset can be
been taken from www.kaggle.com, www.brightdata.com, etc. Due to the wide adoption of
machine learning models, simply having large datasets on a domain specific task does not
ensure superior performance. Therefore, the dataset must be cleaned and preprocessed
before training. As Machine Learning models learn from the data, they are trained with
automatic predictions are likely to mirror the human disagreement identified during
annotation. As a result, having proper data cleaning and preprocessing of dataset is
required.

7. Algorithm

The algorithm for analyzing the "120 Years of Olympics" dataset using logistic regression
begins with data preprocessing, which involves cleaning the dataset, encoding categorical
variables, and defining a binary target variable (medal or no medal). Next, the dataset is
split into training and testing sets for model evaluation. Also build random forest models
to predict medal outcomes using an ensemble of decision trees, fine-tuning
hyperparameters. The algorithm will be explained in detail, including the mathematical
foundation and implementation.

8. Limitations of the Project

• Possible issues with missing or incomplete historical records.

• Risk of overfitting due to complex dataset with limited data points.
• May not account for external factors like technology advancements or
geopoliticalevents.
• Assumes linear relationships between features and outcomes, which may not
hold in all cases.
• Limited ability to capture nonlinear relationships between variables.
• Logistic regression might not handle highly complex interactions between
features effectively.
• Olympic contexts may change, requiring continuous model updates to
maintain accuracy and relevance.
 9. Conclusion and Future Scope for Modification

In conclusion, this project aims to provide businesses with an improved methodology for
medal prediction using logistic regression. The project's limitations will be acknowledged.
The future scope includes enhancing data collection methods, exploring advanced machine
learning techniques, and implementing real-time data integration for more dynamic
predictions.
