We propose an approach for the analysis and prediction of a football championship. It is based on Poisson regression models that include the Elo points of the teams as covariates and incorporates differences of team-specific effects. These models for the prediction of the FIFA World Cup 2018 are fitted on all football games on neutral ground of the participating teams since 2010. Based on the model estimates for single matches Monte-Carlo simulations are used to estimate probabilities for reaching the different stages in the FIFA World Cup 2018 for all teams. We propose two score functions for ordinal random variables that serve together with the rank probability score for the validation of our models with the results of the FIFA World Cups 2010 and 2014. All models favor Germany as the new FIFA World Champion. All possible courses of the tournament and their probabilities are visualized using a single Sankey diagram.

In basketball and hockey, state-of-the-art player value statistics are often variants of Adjusted Plus-Minus (APM). But APM hasnt had the same impact in soccer, since soccer games are low scoring with a low number of substitutions. In soccer, perhaps the most comprehensive player value statistics come from video games, and in particular FIFA. FIFA ratings combine the subjective evaluations of over 9000 scouts, coaches, and season-ticket holders into ratings for over 18,000 players. This paper combines FIFA ratings and APM into a single metric, which we call Augmented APM. The key idea is recasting APM into a Bayesian framework, and incorporating FIFA ratings into the prior distribution. We show that Augmented APM predicts better than both standard APM and a model using only FIFA ratings. We also show that Augmented APM decorrelates players that are highly collinear.
We use grey forecast model to predict the future energy consumption of four states in the U.S, and make some improvments to the model.
Accelerated degradation tests are used to provide accurate estimation of lifetime properties of highly reliable products within a relatively short testing time. There data from particular tests at high levels of stress (e.,g. temperature, voltage, or vibration) are extrapolated, through a physically meaningful model, to obtain estimates of lifetime quantiles under normal use conditions. In this work, we consider repeated measures accelerated degradation tests with multiple stress variables, where the degradation paths are assumed to follow a linear mixed effects model which is quite common in settings when repeated measures are made. We derive optimal experimental designs for minimizing the asymptotic variance for estimating the median failure time under normal use conditions when the time points for measurements are either fixed in advance or are also to be optimized.
Purpose: Summarize ICU delirium prediction models published within the past five years. Methods: Electronic searches were conducted in April 2019 using PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central, Web of Science, and CINAHL to identify peer reviewed studies pub lished in English during the past five years that specifically addressed the development, validation, or recalibration of delirium prediction models in adult ICU populations. Data were extracted using CHARMS checklist elements for systematic reviews of prediction studies, including the following characteristics: study design, participant descriptions and recruitment methods, predicted outcomes, a priori candidate predictors, sample size, model development, model performance, study results, interpretation of those results, and whether the study included missing data. Results: Twenty studies featuring 26 distinct prediction models were included. Model performance varied greatly, as assessed by AUROC (0.68-0.94), specificity (56.5%-92.5%), and sensitivity (59%-90.9%). Most models used data collected from a single time point or window to predict the occurrence of delirium at any point during hospital or ICU admission, and lacked mechanisms for providing pragmatic, actionable predictions to clinicians. Conclusions: Although most ICU delirium prediction models have relatively good performance, they have limited applicability to clinical practice. Most models were static, making predictions based on data collected at a single time-point, failing to account for fluctuating conditions during ICU admission. Further research is needed to create clinically relevant dynamic delirium prediction models that can adapt to changes in individual patient physiology over time and deliver actionable predictions to clinicians.
This paper presents a case study on short-term load forecasting for France, with emphasis on special days, such as public holidays. We investigate the generalisability to French data of a recently proposed approach, which generates forecasts for norm al and special days in a coherent and unified framework, by incorporating subjective judgment in univariate statistical models using a rule-based methodology. The intraday, intraweek, and intrayear seasonality in load are accommodated using a rule-based triple seasonal adaptation of a seasonal autoregressive moving average (SARMA) model. We find that, for application to French load, the method requires an important adaption. We also adapt a recently proposed SARMA model that accommodates special day effects on an hourly basis using indicator variables. Using a rule formulated specifically for the French load, we compare the SARMA models with a range of different benchmark methods based on an evaluation of their point and density forecast accuracy. As sophisticated benchmarks, we employ the rule-based triple seasonal adaptations of Holt-Winters-Taylor (HWT) exponential smoothing and artificial neural networks (ANNs). We use nine years of half-hourly French load data, and consider lead times ranging from one half-hour up to a day ahead. The rule-based SARMA approach generated the most accurate forecasts.
