Obviously, online gaming isn't exactly the same as radiosport, but with 
the recent discussion regarding cheating and cheaters, I thought the

 Lin says the system dramatically improved what the company calls “reform 
rates.” A player who has previously received a penalty, such as a 
suspension from ranked matches, is considered reformed if he or she 
avoids subsequent penalties for a period of time. “When we added better 
feedback to the punishments and included evidence such as chat logs for 
the punishment, reform rates jumped from 50 percent to 65 percent,” he 
says. “But when the machine learning system began delivering much faster 
feedback with the evidence, reform rates spiked to an all-time high of 
92 percent.”
