| Title: | Modeling tennis via stochastic Markov chains |
| Seminar: | CCMA Luncheon Seminar |
| Speaker: | Paul Newton, usc.edu |
| Abstract: |
| We will describe a stochastic Markov chain model for calculating the probability
density function associated with head-to-head matches and full tournament
simulations on the ATP tour. This leads to a stochastic ranking system for
tennis. Joint work with K. Aslam and J.B. Keller. |
