  • Essays in Basketball Analytics
    Essays in Basketball Analytics Suraj Keshri Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 c 2019 Suraj Keshri All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Essays in Basketball Analytics Suraj Keshri With the increasing popularity and competition in professional basketball in the past decade, data driven decision has emerged as a big competitive edge. The advent of high frequency player tracking data from SportVU has enabled a rigorous analysis of player abilities and interactions that was not possible before. The tracking data records two-dimensional x-y coordinates of 10 players on the court as well as the x-y-z coordinates of the ball at a resolu- tion of 25 frames per second, yielding over 1 billion space-time observations over the course of a full season. This dissertation offers a collection of spatio-temporal models and player evaluation metrics that provide insight into the player interactions and their performance, hence allowing the teams to make better decisions. Conventional approaches to simulate matches have ignored that in basketball the dy- namics of ball movement is very sensitive to the lineups on the court and unique identities of players on both offense and defense sides. In chapter 2, we propose the simulation in- frastructure 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 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 represents the network structure of players on the court, their actions, events, etc., and edges denote possible moves in the game flow.

  • How Does He Do It? No One Else Has, and That’S Why I Will Be Attending the Ohio State University,” Said the Defensive End
    Originally Published: June 2008 OHIO STATE FOOTBALL RECRUITING who were on campus, 20 became Buckeyes. Tressel cited the quality of the product of Ohio State and the hard work of the coaching and support staff, but Fickell seemed to think there was more to it than that. The assistant called scoring such a high rate of official visitors “pretty amazing” and added, “I talk to them about it. I say, ‘Hey, we focus on the kids.’ We might be in Georgia only recruiting four kids, but we early on figure the ones that we might have a chance with and I think that’s one of the keys to recruiting. People might say Ohio State has got a chance with everybody, but that’s not true. When you can focus in on the kids you think you’ve really got a chance at, then I think you do your best job.” Other Characteristics Tressel was matter-of-fact in explaining the reason for his philosophy. “We concentrate on our recruits as people because that’s what we believe,” he said. “We want to know about a young man as a member of his family, as a teammate, and as a contributor to his school and commu- nity overall. We try to give them an honest impression of Ohio State and what it takes to succeed here. We want them to know that what they will experience here is much more than just football.” MARK REA Count Solomon Thomas among those MASTER TACTICIAN – On the field, Jim Tressel has enjoyed success at Ohio State with four Big Ten championships and three sold by the approach.
