Applying Elo Ratings to the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL)
Inspired by an article on FiveThirtyEight, I apply the Elo rating system to the AUDL, a professional ultimate league created in 2012.
This project involves web scraping, application of a statistical model, data analysis and data visualization. I have utilized the data model created in this project to win two weekly competitions on AUDL Pick'Em and came in second overall for the 2017 overall competition.
These are select guided projects that I have worked on through the DataQuest platform. I have earned a Data Analyst Certificate through this platform and am working on the Data Science certificate. A full list of the projects I have completed can be seen here.
