  • Graphical Model for Baskeball Match Simulation
    Graphical Model for Baskeball Match Simulation Min-hwan Oh, Suraj Keshri, Garud Iyengar Columbia University New York, NY, USA, 10027 [email protected], [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Conventional approaches to simulate matches have ignored that in basketball the dynamics of ball movement is very sensitive to the lineups on the court and unique identities of players on both offense and defense sides. In this paper, we propose the simulation infrastructure that can bridge the gap between player identity and team level network. We model the progression of a basketball match using a probabilistic graphical model. We model every touch and event in a game as a sequence of transitions between discrete states. We treat the progression of a match as a graph, where each node is a network structure of players on the court, their actions, events, etc., and edges denote possible moves in the game flow. Our results show that either changes in the team lineup or changes in the opponent team lineup significantly affects the dynamics of a match progression. Evaluation on the match data for the 2013-14 NBA season suggests that the graphical model approach is appropriate for modeling a basketball match. 1 Introduction Predicting the outcomes of professional sports events is one of the most popular practices in the sports media, fan communities and, of course, sport betting related industries. Predictions range from human prediction to statistical analysis of historical data. In recent years, basketball, specifically the NBA, has received much atten- tion as a domain of analytics with the advent of player tracking data.

    Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Remarks Honoring the 2014 National Basketball Association Champion San Antonio Spurs January 12, 2015 The President. Well, hello, everybody! Welcome to the White House. Everybody, please have a seat. In case you didn't know, these are the NBA Champion San Antonio Spurs. I was considering having the Vice President cover these remarks so I could stay fresh for the State of the Union. [Laughter] Taking an example off Pop, who sits his stars sometimes—[laughter]— but I decided I actually wanted to meet them. So I know we've got a lot of Spurs fans in the house—no doubt—including a guy I stole from San Antonio, our Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, former Mayor Julián Castro. [Applause] Hey! And of course we want to welcome General Manager R.C. Buford and, of course, Coach Popovich. I want the coach to know that he is not contractually obligated to take questions after the first quarter of my remarks. [Laughter] Now, look, I admit it, I'm a Bulls fan. It's never easy celebrating a non-Bulls team in the White House. [Laughter] That's all I've been able to do—[laughter]—so far. But even I have to admit that the Spurs are hard to dislike. First of all, they're old. [Laughter] And for an old guy, it makes me feel good to see—where's Tim? [Laughter] Tim's got some gray. There's a few others with a little sprinkles around here. There's a reason why the uniform is black and silver.

  • 'Public' Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok
    ‘Public’ Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok ‘Public’ Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok Winyu Ardrugsa Faculty of Architecture and Planning, Thammasat University, Thailand [email protected] ABSTRACT his paper investigates the exclusivity of Muslim prayer rooms found distributed throughout urban T Bangkok. Although the prayer room can hardly be considered domestic, its existence is not really ‘public’ either. Increasingly, this little worship space is accommodated in some public facilities owned by state organizations and private corporations. In this paper the prayer room is examined in three interrelated scales: the geographical network, the placement of the room within a facility and the interior. The examination reveals inscribed body-place relationships which are conceived specifically to different projected images of each place and different social categorizations of Muslim users. Keywords: prayer room, public space, Muslim space, subjectivity, spatiality INTRODUCTION For devout Muslims, the prayer room increasingly becomes a part of daily life. This paper’s investigation In nations neighboring Thailand, such as Malaysia is specifically organized around the accommodations and Indonesia, Muslims are in the majority. Many of the individual prayer room in the city of Bangkok.1 Thai Muslims who have visited the countries agree The term ‘public’ added to the prayer room that the prayer room is a very common element here, however, is not used without intention. It is found in public facilities. When it is time for prayer, specifically employed to problematize prayer rooms they think about the room before the mosque. Its in ‘public’ places. They are to be found mostly importance and omnipresence in these countries within the seemingly-public facilities of private allow one to consider the prayer room an essential organizations, i.e.
