Abstract

This paper focuses on the influence of "momentum" in tennis and analyzes the scoring pattern of athletes using LightGBM model and BP neural network model. First, the selected influencing factors were subjected to PCA dimensionality reduction. Then, we built the LightGBM model to evaluate the real-time performance of the players. Secondly, we quantified "momentum" using the entropy weighting method and confirmed the importance of "momentum" in the game by comparing the cumulative "momentum" with the actual win/loss situation and conducting the chi-square test. The importance of "momentum" in the game was confirmed by comparing the cumulative "momentum" with the actual winning and losing situations and conducting chi-square test. Finally, a BP neural network model was developed to predict momentum fluctuations and to identify the factors associated with these fluctuations.
