Roughly what time frame do you expect research assistant(s) to work? Flexible schedule (Combination of business and outside of business. TBD between student and research mentor.)

Overall Research Project Description This research project focuses on modeling the gameplay of soccer using agent-based models. In soccer, player interactions and characteristics, ball movement, decision-making, and team formation rules the game statistics and outcomes. In this project, we will employ agent-based modeling techniques, using relevant softwares and packages, to simulate the interaction between players and explore their influence on team strategies, ball possession, goal-scoring probabilities, etc.

Research Tasks Literature review of relevant research studies, Mathematical modeling, Analysis and visualization of the simulations

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Calculus, Some experience in coding, Passion for modeling sports, Basic knowledge of soccer rules

Mentoring Philosophy I strongly believe a true mentorship is a two-way relationship between the mentor and the mentee. I work closely with the mentees to help them find their strength and recognize how to improve their research skills.
