D-5 Analysis of Player's Characteristics based on Curling Sport Databases : Analysis of Characteristics of Position based on Shot Scores

Abstract

This paper reports on the analysis of the characteristics for each position in curling based on shot-scores. We computed average shot-scores for each position using 14 game information about college-top level teams, and analyzed the correlation between the differences of average shot-scores and the differences of final game scores. The results show that strong correlations appeared on the results of the lead positions and the fourth position, and no correlation for second position and third relates to the game progress. There is possibility to predict game results and game progress based on short-score for each position.
