International Journal of Electronic Business Management, 11(1), 13-22. Content: “Artificial neural network is a teaching tool with the principle of processing information through simulating human brain” Based off the article there is a lot of data and statistics thrown around because it mentions as the evaluation of a players performance from when they are about to hit free agency and they years that they won’t hit free agency. There are many type of performance options that are evaluated in the paper and it is based of different goals of the players and how much they play.

This can go in many ways with decisons of who to hire for certain teams, how much a player should get paid, etc.
