91 Predictions
Is Pluto a planet? Or a dwarf planet? The controversy rages. But this planet, on the fringes of our solar system, has immense astrological significance, unexplored by the Vedic and Western astrologers. Author and scientific astrologer Greenstone Lobo believes Pluto symbolises destruction and regeneration-as the mythological Rudra Shiva. In a scary and uncertain world-on the edge because of a pandemic, economic crises, ecological disasters and pandemonium in politics, Lobo looks towards Pluto to make sense of the past, present and the future. He describes the planet's journey over the last 250 and the next fifty years, as well as the grand scale on which it can operate. Exploring its characte...
Why the U.S. Men Will Never Win the World Cup
October 10, 2017. The U.S. men’s soccer team loses in Trinidad and Tobago, and fails to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. Winning soccer’s greatest prize never seemed more distant. Immediate fixes—a new coach, a revamped professional league, a commitment to coaching education—won’t put the USA in the global elite. The nation is too fractious, too litigious, too wrapped up in other sports, and too late to the game. In Why the U.S. Men Will Never Win the World Cup: A Historical and Cultural Reality Check, Beau Dure shows what American soccer is really up against. Using hundreds of sources to trace more than 100 years of history, Dure delves into the culture that only recently lost its ...
Football Soccer World Cup 2022 Guide and Past World Cups History and Quiz illustrated
The World Cup is the biggest stage in international soccer, and the 2022 edition in Qatar will be no different. A total of 32 teams will compete for the title, with 64 matches taking place across eight stadiums in the country. The World Cup will be held in Qatar from November 21 to December 18, 2022. It will be the first World Cup held in the Middle East and the first World Cup held in an Islamic country. Qatar was selected as the host country by FIFA's Executive Committee on December 2, 2010. There is no denying that Qatar is a deserving host country. It has the financial resources to build the infrastructure needed to host a World Cup, and it has a proven track record of delivering large-s...
Prediction Markets
How does one effectively aggregate disparate pieces of information that are spread among many different individuals? In other words, how does one best access the ‘wisdom of the crowd’? Prediction markets, which are essentially speculative markets created for the purpose of aggregating information and making predictions, offer the answer to this question. The effective use of these markets has the potential not only to help forecast future events on a national and international level, but also to assist companies, for example, in providing improved estimates of the potential market size for a new product idea or the launch date of new products and services. The markets have already been u...

The Economics of Competitive Sports
The essence of any sports contest is competition. The very unpredictability of a sporting outcome distinguishes it from, say, an opera performance. This volume presents a state of the art overview of the economics of competitive sport along two main th

It further covers non-linear optimization methods such as global optimization, and gradient-based non-linear optimization, and their applications. Discusses important topics including multi-component differential equations, geometric partial differential equations, and computational neural systems Covers linear integer programming and network design problems, along with an application of the mixed integer problems Discusses constrained and unconstrained optimization, equality, and inequality constraints, and their application in the versatile optimizing domain Elucidates the application of statistical models, probability models, and transfer learning concepts Showcases the importance of multi-attribute decision modeling in the domain of image processing and soft computing The text is primarily for senior undergraduate and graduate students, and academic researchers in the fields of mathematics, statistics, and computer science.
Prediction Markets
Accurate predictions are essential in many areas such as corporate decision making, weather forecasting and technology forecasting. Prediction markets help to aggregate information and gain a better understanding of the future by leveraging the wisdom of the crowds. Trading prices in prediction markets thus reflect the traders’ aggregated expectations on the outcome of uncertain future events and can be used to predict the likelihood of these events. This book demonstrates that markets are accurate predictors. Results from several empirical studies reported in this work show the importance of designing such markets properly in order to derive valuable predictions. Therefore, the findings are valuable for designing future prediction markets.
