In this paper, we provide probabilistic predictions for soccer games of the 2010 FIFA World Cup modelling the number of goals scored in a game by each team. We use a Poisson distribution for the number of goals for each team in a game, where the scoring rate is considered unknown. We use a Gamma distribution for the scoring rate and the Gamma parameters are chosen using historical data and difference among teams defined by a strength factor for each team. The strength factor is a measure of discrimination among the national teams obtained from their memberships to fuzzy clusters. The clusters are obtained with the use of the Fuzzy C-means algorithm applied to a vector of variables, most of them available on the official FIFA website. Static and dynamic models were used to predict the World Cup outcomes and the performance of our predictions was evaluated using two comparison methods. 相似文献

One of the common used classes of distributions is the stopped-sum class. This class includes Hermite distribution, Polya–Aeppli distribution, Poisson-Gamma distribution, and Neyman type A. This article introduces the saddlepoint approximations to the stopped-sum class in continuous and discrete settings. We discuss approximations for mass/density and cumulative distribution functions of stopped-sum distributions. Examples of continuous and discrete distributions from the Poisson stopped-sum class are presented. Comparisons between saddlepoint approximations and the exact calculations show the great accuracy of the saddlepoint methods. 相似文献
