[R] [R-pkgs] footBayes 0.1.0 for football modelling is on CRAN!
Hi all, just to inform you that the 'footBayes' package (version 0.1.0) is now on CRAN: https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=footBayes<https://cran.r-project.org/package=footBayes> The package wants to be the most comprehensive tool for the football (soccer) modelling ecosystem. As such, it allows the estimation, the visualization and the prediction for the most well-known football (soccer) models, according to the references: Dixon and Coles (1997) <doi:10.1111/1467-9876.00065>, Karlis and Ntzoufras (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-9884.00366> and Egidi, Pauli and Torelli (2018) <doi:10.1177/1471082X18798414>. In brief, the goal of ```footBayes``` is to propose a complete workflow to: - fit the most well-known football models: double Poisson, bivariate Poisson, Skellam, student-t, according to both maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods (+ Hamiltonian Monte Carlo engine); - visualize the teams' abilities, the model checks, the rank-league reconstruction; - predict out-of-sample matches. Try the package now and enjoy! Best.
