Usage

Example to generate the data and train the model for the year 2019. Run the code in the root of the project folder :

python src/data_collection/ncaa_team_scraper.py -y 2019
python src/data_collection/ncaa_player_scraper.py -y 2019
python src/data_collection/ncaa_team_data_cleaner.py -y 2019 --all
python src/data_collection/ncaa_player_data_cleaner.py -y 2019 --all
python src/models/ncaa_model_evaluator.py -d "../../data/ncaa/processed/2019/accumulated/0.2_ewm_with_players.csv"
python src/models/ncaa_model_tuner.py -d "../../data/ncaa/processed/2019/accumulated/0.2_ewm_with_players.csv"

Description of relevant scripts

Final Scripts

ncaa_team_scraper.py :

• Scrapes game by game data and team statistics for all the teams
