Statistics et al.: February 2022

This is an open peer review I did for the manuscript "Algorithmically deconstructing shot locations as a method for shot quality in hockey" by Devan G. Becker, Douglas G. Woolford and Charmaine B. Dean as submitted to the Journal of Quantitative Assessment in Sport, back in 2020.

You can find the manuscript behind a $42 paywall put up by DeGruyter at https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/jqas-2020-0012/html

About the Author

Jack Davis is a teaching professor in Statistics at the University of Waterloo, Canada.

Their research spans statistics in sport, data mining, adult education and Bayesian computation.

They have a course called "Statistics, Gambling, and Games of Chance" on Udemy.

They also pretend to be an expert in writing and game design, which is why they wrote a textbook called "Writing for Statisticians" and why they programmed a video game called "Doc Logic" for Xbox 360.

They enjoy chess and chess variants, but they are so, so, very bad at them. They want to try living on a houseboat sometime.
