This projects aim is to explore computer vision to examine the feasibility of providing live positional graphics on horse races through a computer vision model. Starting with learning, explaining and documenting machine learning and computer vision fundamentals so that both me and the reader can build a basic understanding. From there in the literature review state of the art models focused on multiple object tracking in horse racing are reviewed and explained, to understand the main challenges facing such an implementation. Finally, I implement my own object detection model using YoloV8, and a custom dataset made by myself. Given the project constraints and limitations, I was able to train a fairly accurate model, and discuss the results.

There is currently a proliferation of learning resources recommendation websites that signpost to resources such as Udemy, Coursera, LinkedIn Learning, W3Schools, that can be used to learn or upskill on a specific topic. Some of these websites also allow visitors to leave reviews and comments on their experience with these resources or recommend other resources they found helpful. There are also bookmarking systems including web browsers that allow learners to bookmark these resources for later consumption. However, there aren’t many systems that bridge these two processes into one single system. This software development project aimed to address this identified gap by providing a 2-in-1 resource recommender and bookmarking system to potentially improve the learner’s experience as they won’t have to use two different systems. This will also act as a central repository for all the reviews and bookmarks that could provide more insight into what resources learners find particularly helpful.
