Abstract
This invention provides an innovative method for analyzing sports statistics and phenomenon by using quantized event data classes. Computerized algorithms can sift through the quantized event data structures resolving all recorded event attributes and also calculate innumerable statistical results based on those particular attributes.
Claims20
A method for acquiring and analyzing phenomenological and statistical data regarding a sport contest, comprising:
- identifying a plurality of discrete events that happen during the sport contest;
- recording onto computer readable media, as a quantized event, the following attributes for each such event:
- phenomenological data describing a characteristic of the event;
- sequential data specifying an ordering amongst events taking place during the sport contest;
- and
- performing an analysis on a collection of recorded quantized events by processing said collection to obtain a statistical result for said collection comprising the following steps:
- resolving an attribute for the quantized event from said collection;
- and
- determining the statistical result for the said collection according to the attribute for the quantized event.

A method for simulating a sport contest phenomenologically and statistically as a virtual sport contest, the method comprising the computer-implemented steps of:
- generating a plurality of fictitious events for the virtual sport contest;
- generating the following attributes, as a quantized event, for each such fictitious event:
- phenomenological data describing a characteristic of the fictitious event;
- sequential data specifying an ordering amongst fictitious events;
- and
- performing an analysis on a collection of fictitious events by processing said collection to obtain a statistical result for said collection comprising the following steps:
- resolving an attribute for a fictitious event from said collection;
- and
- determining the statistical result for the said collection according to the attribute for the fictitious event.
