Tomorrow I'll visit Vibracoustic around Nantes to (maybe) start a collaboration. I'm supposed to talk about my research interests. Since I don't want to show off with mathematical details, I took the decision to show with simple examples what I can bring. In doing so I had the pleasure to found in my laptop an old presentation I gave to "Maths en Jeans" where I talk about a statistical model from predicting football games outcomes (and show how bookmakers always win!). Who said that maths cannot be fun???

PS : Sorry it's in French ;-)
