Within baseball analytics, there is substantial interest in comprehensive statistics intended to capture overall player performance. One such measure is Wins Above Replacement (WAR), which aggregates the contributions of a player in each facet of the game: hitting, pitching, baserunning, and fielding. However, curre

A common problem faced in statistical inference is drawing conclusions from paired comparisons, in which two objects compete and one is declared the victor. A probabilistic approach to such a problem is the Bradley-Terry model, first studied by Zerme lo in 1929 and rediscovered by Bradley and Terry in 1952. One obvious area of application for such a model is sporting events, and in particular Major League Baseball. With this in mind, we describe a hierarchical Bayesian version of Bradley-Terry suitable for use in ranking and prediction problems, and compare results from these application domains to standard maximum likelihood approaches. Our Bayesian methods outperform the MLE-based analogues, while being simple to construct, implement, and interpret.
The problem of evaluating the performance of soccer players is attracting the interest of many companies and the scientific community, thanks to the availability of massive data capturing all the events generated during a match (e.g., tackles, passes , shots, etc.). Unfortunately, there is no consolidated and widely accepted metric for measuring performance quality in all of its facets. In this paper, we design and implement PlayeRank, a data-driven framework that offers a principled multi-dimensional and role-aware evaluation of the performance of soccer players. We build our framework by deploying a massive dataset of soccer-logs and consisting of millions of match events pertaining to four seasons of 18 prominent soccer competitions. By comparing PlayeRank to known algorithms for performance evaluation in soccer, and by exploiting a dataset of players evaluations made by professional soccer scouts, we show that PlayeRank significantly outperforms the competitors. We also explore the ratings produced by {sf PlayeRank} and discover interesting patterns about the nature of excellent performances and what distinguishes the top players from the others. At the end, we explore some applications of PlayeRank -- i.e. searching players and player versatility --- showing its flexibility and efficiency, which makes it worth to be used in the design of a scalable platform for soccer analytics.

We present LEGOEval, an open-source toolkit that enables researchers to easily evaluate dialogue systems in a few lines of code using the online crowdsource platform, Amazon Mechanical Turk. Compared to existing toolkits, LEGOEval features a flexible task design by providing a Python API that maps to commonly used React.js interface components. Researchers can personalize their evaluation procedures easily with our built-in pages as if playing with LEGO blocks. Thus, LEGOEval provides a fast, consistent method for reproducing human evaluation results. Besides the flexible task design, LEGOEval also offers an easy API to review collected data.
We introduce ratatoskr, an open-source framework for in-depth power, performance and area (PPA) analysis in NoCs for 3D-integrated and heterogeneous System-on-Chips (SoCs). It covers all layers of abstraction by providing a NoC hardware implementatio n on RT level, a NoC simulator on cycle-accurate level and an application model on transaction level. By this comprehensive approach, ratatoskr can provide the following specific PPA analyses: Dynamic power of links can be measured within 2.4% accuracy of bit-level simulations while maintaining cycle-accurate simulation speed. Router power is determined from RT level synthesis combined with cycle-accurate simulations. The performance of the whole NoC can be measured both via cycle-accurate and RT level simulations. The performance of individual routers is obtained from RT level including gate-level verification. The NoC area is calculated from RT level. Despite these manifold features, ratatoskr offers easy two-step user interaction: First, a single point-of-entry that allows to set design parameters and second, PPA reports are generated automatically. For both the input and the output, different levels of abstraction can be chosen for high-level rapid network analysis or low-level improvement of architectural details. The synthesize NoC model reduces up to 32% total router power and 3% router area in comparison to a conventional standard router. As a forward-thinking and unique feature not found in other NoC PPA-measurement tools, ratatoskr supports heterogeneous 3D integration that is one of the most promising integration paradigms for upcoming SoCs. Thereby, ratatoskr lies the groundwork to design their communication architectures.
Many robotic tasks rely on the accurate localization of moving objects within a given workspace. This information about the objects poses and velocities are used for control,motion planning, navigation, interaction with the environment or verificatio n. Often motion capture systems are used to obtain such a state estimate. However, these systems are often costly, limited in workspace size and not suitable for outdoor usage. Therefore, we propose a lightweight and easy to use, visual-inertial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping approach that leverages cost-efficient, paper printable artificial landmarks, socalled fiducials. Results show that by fusing visual and inertial data, the system provides accurate estimates and is robust against fast motions and changing lighting conditions. Tight integration of the estimation of sensor and fiducial pose as well as extrinsics ensures accuracy, map consistency and avoids the requirement for precalibration. By providing an open source implementation and various datasets, partially with ground truth information, we enable community members to run, test, modify and extend the system either using these datasets or directly running the system on their own robotic setups.
