Versioned methods · Reproducible tools

Football prediction research built to be checked

Every item fixes its formula, version, publication date and evidence boundary. These are editorial technical notes and deterministic tools—not anonymous accuracy claims or substitute peer review.

Publication rules

What this register does—and does not—certify

A version proves which formula and explanation this site intended to publish. It cannot create independent validation, historical existence or model performance that the underlying evidence does not support.

  1. 01

    Organisation author

    Football Proof AI is the declared publisher and author. No fictional person, credential or reviewer is implied.

  2. 02

    Primary sourcing

    Statistical definitions link to original papers or authoritative technical documentation where available.

  3. 03

    Explicit limits

    Small samples, time dependence, leakage, excluded rows and lack of external review remain visible beside conclusions.

  4. 04

    Versioned change

    A material formula or evidence-contract change receives a new version instead of silently inheriting an old citation.
