- class openskill.models.weng_lin.thurstone_mosteller_full.ThurstoneMostellerFull(mu=25.0, sigma=25.0 / 3.0, beta=25.0 / 6.0, kappa=0.0001, gamma=_gamma, tau=25.0 / 300.0, limit_sigma=False)[source]¶
Algorithm 3 by Weng and Lin [2011]
The Thurstone-Mosteller with Full Pairing model assumes a single scalar value to represent player performance and enables rating updates based on match outcomes. Additionally, it employs a maximum likelihood estimation approach to estimate the ratings of players as per the observed outcomes. These assumptions contribute to the model’s ability to estimate ratings accurately and provide a well-founded ranking of players.
- Parameters:
mu (float) –
Represents the initial belief about the skill of a player before any matches have been played. Known mostly as the mean of the Guassian prior distribution.
Represented by: \(\mu\)
sigma (float) –
Standard deviation of the prior distribution of player.
Represented by: \(\sigma = \frac{\mu}{z}\) where \(z\) is an integer that represents the variance of the skill of a player.
beta (float) –
Hyperparameter that determines the level of uncertainty or variability present in the prior distribution of ratings.
Represented by: \(\beta = \frac{\sigma}{2}\)
kappa (float) –
Arbitrary small positive real number that is used to prevent the variance of the posterior distribution from becoming too small or negative. It can also be thought of as a regularization parameter.
Represented by: \(\kappa\)
gamma (Callable[[float, int, float, float, Sequence[ThurstoneMostellerFullRating], int], float]) –
Custom function you can pass that must contain 5 parameters. The function must return a float or int.
Represented by: \(\gamma\)
tau (float) –
Additive dynamics parameter that prevents sigma from getting too small to increase rating change volatility.
Represented by: \(\tau\)
limit_sigma (bool) – Boolean that determines whether to restrict the value of sigma from increasing.

- _calculate_rankings(game, ranks=None)[source]¶
Calculates the rankings based on the scores or ranks of the teams.
It assigns a rank to each team based on their score, with the team with the highest score being ranked first.

A list of ranks for each team in the game.
- Return type:
List[int]
- _calculate_team_ratings(game, ranks=None)[source]¶
Get the team ratings of a game.
- Parameters:
game (Sequence[Sequence[ThurstoneMostellerFullRating]]) – A list of teams, where teams are lists of
ThurstoneMostellerFullRating
objects.ranks (Optional[List[float]]) – A list of ranks for each team in the game.
- Returns:
A list of
ThurstoneMostellerFullTeamRating
objects.- Return type:
