英文摘要

State lotteries employ sales projections to determine appropriate advertised jackpot levels for some of their games. This paper focuses on prediction of sales for the Lotto Texas game of the Texas Lottery. A novel prediction method is developed in this setting that utilizes functional data analysis concepts in conjunction with a Bayesian paradigm to produce predictions and associated precision assessments.
