Using Soccer Goals to Motivate the Poisson Process
In introducing analytic queuing models, textbooks rarely justify the assumption of the exponential and the Poisson distributions. This paper demonstrates how a real-life phenomenon familiar to many students, namely the occurrences of soccer goals, can drive the ideas. An Excel worksheet is made available for further analysis. Editor’s note: This is a pdf copy of an html document which resides a...
متن کاملFractional Poisson Process
For almost two centuries, Poisson process with memoryless property of corresponding exponential distribution served as the simplest, and yet one of the most important stochastic models. On the other hand, there are many processes that exhibit long memory (e.g., network traffic and other complex systems). It would be useful if one could generalize the standard Poisson process to include these p...

متن کاملExpected Goals in Soccer: Explaining Match Results using Predictive Analytics
Where data based decision making is taking over businesses and elite sports, elite soccer is lacking behind. In elite soccer, decisions are still often based on emotions and recent results. As results are, however, dependent on many aspects, the reasons for these results are currently unknown by the elite soccer clubs. In our study, a method is proposed to determine the expected winner of a mat...
