 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 the
Olympics.

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 insights
into 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 geopolitical
events.
• 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.
