Analyzing Volleyball Data on a Compositional Regression Model Approach: An Application to the Brazilian Men's Volleyball Super League 2011/2012 Data

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

Volleyball has become a competitive sport with high physical and technical performance. Matches results are based on the players and teams'skills as technical and tactical strategies to succeed in a championship. At this point, some studies are carried out on the performance analysis of different match elements, contributing to the development of this sport. In this paper, we proposed a new approach to analyze volleyball data. The study is based on the compositional data methodology modeling in regression model. The parameters are obtained through the maximum likelihood. We performed a simulation study to evaluate the estimation procedure in compositional regression model and we illustrated the proposed methodology considering real data set of volleyball.
