520 |a Studies on development athlete were frequently evaluated through the subjective opinions of coaches and scouts that can lead to repeated errors and misjudgements when they are used in isolation. Due to this, the data ets of development athletes can be very large and often containing many variable ,as well as the standard univariate statistical analy is techniques which are focused on the identification of single variables to differentiate between performance levels. The objectives of the study are to; 1) identify the most significant parameters based on anthropometric and physical fitness parameters, 2) develop and verify the index based on anthropometric and physical fitness parameters, 3) develop the model based on anthropometric and physical fitness parameters u ing Machine learning. A total of 309 Terengganu male athletes (16.8 ± 2.3 years) were drawn randomly from individual port categories. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to identify the most essential performance variables, developing an index of Terengganu Athletes Capabilities Index (TACI) with five classification namely, Excellent Performance Athletes (EPA), Good Performance Athletes (GPA), Moderate Performance Athletes (MPA), Low Performance Athletes (LP A) and Poor Perf rmance Athletes (PP A). The discriminant analysis (DA) was applied to validate the index group. he -Neare t Neighbour (k-NN), Tree, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Naive Bayes and Logistic Regression I arning algorithms were trained to predict and classify the EPA, GP A, MP A, LP A and PP A. PCA indicates that out of nine performance variables evaluated, only a set of six variables are essentials with 66.4% of total variance. Most of the athletes were grouped on MPA classification C 0.1 %), followed by LPA (28.5%), GPA (21%), PPA (15.8%) and EPA (4.5%) based on TACI. Finally, ANN learning algorithm outperformed all the performance metrics of machine learning with 0.88 classification accuracies, 0.87 F1 score for the model, and 0.88 precisions for all the evaluated parameters. A strong sensitivity and specificity are observed between the classification and the selected performance variables for the model. The study revealed that the benefits of multivariate analysis and machine learning techniques permit the researcher to identify Terengganu athletes accurately and holistically, hence reducing the time, cost and manpower on the talent identification program. Importantly, the identification of the potential Terengganu athletes through the holistically reliable battery test with the help of machine learning technique revealed more useful insights within the field of talent identification and science specifically.
