A framework for the fine-grained evaluation of the instantaneous expected value of soccer possessions

Javier Fernandez, Luke Bornn, Daniel Cervone

The expected possession value (EPV) of a soccer possession represents the likelihood of a team scoring or receiving the next goal at any time instance. By decomposing the EPV into…

Gaussian Process Regression with Location Errors

Daniel Cervone, Natesh S. Pillai

In this paper, we investigate Gaussian process regression models where inputs are subject to measurement error. In spatial statistics, input measurement errors occur when the geogr…

A location-mixture autoregressive model for online forecasting of lung tumor motion

Daniel Cervone, Natesh S. Pillai, Debdeep Pati +2

Lung tumor tracking for radiotherapy requires real-time, multiple-step ahead forecasting of a quasi-periodic time series recording instantaneous tumor locations. We introduce a loc…
