A New Bayesian Rating System for Team Competitions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel probabilistic rating system for team competitions. Building upon TrueSkill, we change the factor graph structure to cope with the problems of TrueSkill, e.g., multiway ties and variable team size. We give detailed inference algorithms for the new structure. Experimental results show a significant improvement over TrueSkill.

Using Item Response Theory To Rate (Not Only) Programmers
We show how Item Response Theory (IRT) can be used to define a new type of rating system, one that is especially suitable for programming competitions (and other types of competitions where difficulty of competitions varies between rounds). We show some useful theoretical properties of this rating system, including the ability to argue about hardness of past competition tasks, and about the pre...
متن کاملEffective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot
Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملTesting Soccer League Competition Algorithm in Comparison with Ten Popular Meta-heuristic Algorithms for Sizing Optimization of Truss Structures
Recently, many meta-heuristic algorithms are proposed for optimization of various problems. Some of them originally are presented for continuous optimization problems and some others are just applicable for discrete ones. In the literature, sizing optimization of truss structures is one of the discrete optimization problems which is solved by many meta-heuristic algorithms. In this paper, in or...
متن کاملExpectation Propagation for Rating Players in Sports Competitions
Rating players in sports competitions based on game results is one example of paired comparison data analysis. Since an exact Bayesian treatment is intractable, several techniques for approximate inference have been proposed in the literature. In this paper we compare several variants of expectation propagation (EP). EP generalizes assumed density filtering (ADF) by iteratively improving the ap...
متن کاملAn Unsupervised Learning Method for an Attacker Agent in Robot Soccer Competitions Based on the Kohonen Neural Network
RoboCup competition as a great test-bed, has turned to a worldwide popular domains in recent years. The main object of such competitions is to deal with complex behavior of systems whichconsist of multiple autonomous agents. The rich experience of human soccer player can be used as a valuable reference for a robot soccer player. However, because of the differences between real and simulated soc...
