Hi, We can look at the performance figures for any sport, team or player.
What I want to do is produce an weighted average for this figure. Older figures should have a lower weighting, scaled by two variables - both the number of games ago this performance was achieved AND the time since that performance. For example a figure of 65 achieved 3 games and 28 days ago would be worth less than a figure of 65 achieved 3 games and 16 days ago, which in turn would be worth less than a figure of 65 achieved 1 game and 16 days ago. Any ideas, formulas, references would be appreciated.
