Applying The Data: Predictive Analytics In Sport, Anthony Teeter, Margo Bergman
Applying The Data: Predictive Analytics In Sport, Anthony Teeter, Margo Bergman
Access*: Interdisciplinary Journal of Student Research and Scholarship
The history of wagering predictions and their impact on wide reaching disciplines such as statistics and economics dates to at least the 1700’s, if not before. Predicting the outcomes of sports is a multibillion-dollar business that capitalizes on these tools but is in constant development with the addition of big data analytics methods. Sportsline.com, a popular website for fantasy sports leagues, provides odds predictions in multiple sports, produces proprietary computer models of both winning and losing teams, and provides specific point estimates. To test likely candidates for inclusion in these prediction algorithms, the authors developed a computer model, and test …
Cash Flow Forecasting Using Probabilistic Neural Networks, Marwan Ashour
Cash Flow Forecasting Using Probabilistic Neural Networks, Marwan Ashour
Journal of the Arab American University مجلة الجامعة العربية الامريكية للبحوث
This paper aimed to compare the modern methods of cash flow forecasting with the traditional ones. In other words, the researcher compared between the Probabilistic Neural Networks and Transfer Function. It is worth mentioning that cash flow forecasting , nowadays, is very important and helps the upper management plan, control, assess the performance and make decisions. More specifically, in this paper, the Artificial Neural networks were used to diagnose the nature of the cash flow for the next period of time and then forecast the cash flow. The experiment was conducted in The General company for Electricity Distribution in Baghdad. …
Time Series Analysis Of Offshore Buoy Light Detection And Ranging (Lidar) Windspeed Data, Aditya Garapati, Charles J. Henderson, Carl Walenciak, Brian T. Waite
Time Series Analysis Of Offshore Buoy Light Detection And Ranging (Lidar) Windspeed Data, Aditya Garapati, Charles J. Henderson, Carl Walenciak, Brian T. Waite
SMU Data Science Review
In this paper, modeling techniques for the forecasting of wind speed using historical values observed by Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensors in an offshore context are described. Both univariate time series and multivariate time series modeling techniques leveraging meteorological data collected simultaneously with the LIDAR data are evaluated for potential contributions to predictive ability. Accurate and timely ability to predict wind values is essential to the effective integration of wind power into existing power grid systems. It allows for both the management of rapid ramp-up / down of base production capacity due to highly variable wind power inputs and …
