Researchers from Digital Creativity Labs at the University of York have announced the development of a landmark real-time prediction model for esports.
In a release received exclusively by Esports Insider, the team revealed the research of a model which “can reasonably predict the outcome of Dota 2,” and which could potentially alter the future of the esports broadcasting experience.
The model, which forms part of an advanced artificial intelligence and data infrastructure developed between DC Labs and its partners, is capable of predicting the winner of a Dota 2 game with an incredible 85 percent accuracy rate after just five minutes of play.
