Dr. Petar Veličković with his science colleagues at DeepMind have just released a new paper called “TacticAI: an AI assistant for football tactics”. The approach identifies key patterns of tactics implemented by rival teams, and figures out effective responses, a huge achievement for modern football.

Petar is a Staff Research Scientist at Google DeepMind, Affiliated Lecturer at the University of Cambridge, and an Associate of Clare Hall, Cambridge. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Cambridge (Trinity College).

(Note: There was a minor mistake in the intro, Petar was at Mila when he invented graph attention networks, not DM)
