On the Probability of Winning a Football Game

TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of the margin of victory over the point spread (defined as the number of points scored by the favorite team plus the amount of points lost by the underdog team) is not significantly different from the normal distribution with mean zero and standard deviation slightly less than fourteen points.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observed feedback between winter sea ice and the North Atlantic Oscillation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors detect and quantify the feedback between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and winter sea ice variability using approximately 30 years of observations, a vector autoregressive model (VAR), and testable definitions of Granger causality and feedback.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Infections of the respiratory tract were studied in a group of families each containing a patient with chronic bronchitis or with asthma, finding that patients with asthma experienced frequent respiratory infections, many of which provoked attacks of asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Models for Distributions on Permutations

TL;DR: In this article, a parametric distribution on permutations of k objects is derived from gamma random variables, where the probability of a permutation is set equal to the probability that k independent Gamma random variables with common shape parameter and different scale parameters are ranked according to that permutation.
