Multi-Opponent James Functions

Abstract

The James function, also known as the "log5 method," assigns a probability to the result of a competition between two teams based on their respective winning percentages. This paper, which builds on earlier work of the authors and Steven J. Miller, explores the analogous situation where a single team or player competes simultaneously against multiple opponents.
