A doubly self-exciting Poisson model for describing scoring levels in NBA basketball
Álvaro Briz-Redón
Abstract:In this article, Poisson time series models are considered to describe the number of field goals made by a basketball team or player at both the game (within-season) and the minute (within-game) level. The model is endowed with a doubly self-exciting structure, following the INGARCH(1,1) specification. To estimate the model at the within-game level, a divide-and-conquer procedure is carried out under a Bayesian framework. Then, we perform a clustering of the players in terms of their similarity according to th… Show more
