The explore-exploit trade-off in sports and exercise: a primer on empirical and computational approaches

2025-12-03

Abstract excerpt

<p>Sports and exercise require constant on-the-fly decision-making from professional athletes and recreational exercisers alike. In the final minutes of a game, a team may for instance face the choice of sticking with their current strategy, or surprising the opponents with a new approach. Such decisions can be framed in terms of an exploration-exploitation trade-off: the need to balance exploiting a certain outco...
