What I have here is some data I collected on how a pitchers strikeout rate progresses as he ages.
I am using a polynomial regression equation, however, I am not satisfied with my results.
The issue that I have is that this equation weights all age groups as equal, however I have a count of how many times each age group was recorded.
Prime ages 24-32etc have been recorded more, therefore their values should hold more weight.
I have ran two tests:
First with all age groups (17-39), the second with age groups that only have at least a count of 30 (17-34)
Is there any way to make this regression equation more accurate ? Is their anyway to weight it ?
Thanks
Joe
