Disney did some absolutely fascinating research here a few years ago. I suggest anyone interested in Deep Learning and Soccer checks out the following video:

"Data-Driven Ghosting using Deep Imitation Learning"

Supposedly Liverpool are using this "ghost" technique as well. in training to change player behavior, using the "expected goals" stat as the main metric or representation of the field state. It works well with Klopp's system.

Are there any regulations against transmitting data to wearables during play? I only see a regulation saying that data from wearables can't be used during a game. Is there anything preventing players from wearing e.g. a device that vibrates when they're not optimally positioned, according to camera tracking

I'm pretty sure it would violate the "spirit of the game" rules by FIFA. Not sure if during halftime teams using digital analysis would even be allowed.
