抄録

<p>In this study, it is examined how to organize a game schedule to increase the number of spectators. By applying the proposed methods, audience for each match condition, such as day of the week, opponent, etc., from past data, is estimated and a new match schedule is constructed based on the estimated values. The models based on multiple regression analysis is evaluated by comparing audience estimated from the new match schedule with it estimated from the actual schedule. In order to create a model that is more realistic, summer vacations and public holidays are added as conditions, and the trend of changes in audience over time is also considered. In addition, a comprehensive judgment is made by considering the impact of the schedule on the travel cost. The experimental results show that audience increased on the proposed methods compared to the actual game schedule. Although there are differences in the rate of increase among teams, the objective of this study is achieved as an optimizing the entire baseball world. These results show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.</p>
