Purpose:
By introducing the grey correlation theory to evaluate the implementation effect of various techniques and tactics of athletes, to conduct a substantial verification of the constructed "New Four-phase Index Statistical Method", to explore the scientific nature of the division of each Phase index, and to provide theoretical support for subsequent systematic research and improvement of the theoretical research system of table tennis techniques and tactics.
Methods:
By employing research methods such as video analysis, mathematical statistics, and grey correlation, a model of the "New Four-phase Index Statistical Method" was constructed. According to the contribution rate and total contribution rate indicators of the set tactics in the attack-after-serve phase (serve and 3rd stroke), attack-after-receive phase (receive and 4th stroke), transition phase (5th and 6th stroke) and rally phase (I and II) within the statistical model, the quality characteristics of the eight technical and tactical contributions of player T when playing against the main and reserve players of China were evaluated and analyzed.
Results:
the contribution rate of the first four strokes is closely related to the total contribution rate, which is the main scoring method for T to win the match. T's 5th and 6th strokes play an important role in the game of attack and defense transition, which is a key turning point of his attack-after-serve phase and attack-after-receive phase into the rally phase. The correlation between the contribution rate during T's rally phase and the overall contribution rate is not very close; similarly, the correlation between T's contribution rate and the total contribution rate is not very close either. With the multi-strokes confrontation, the advantage shown in the match began to decrease slowly.
Conclusion:
By introducing grey relational analysis (GRA), the various technical and tactical effectiveness of the constructed "New Four-Phase Index" can be objectively, reasonably and accurately evaluated, which has certain practicality and feasibility.

Coefficient of Correlation
If you suspect a linear relationship between x and y, then r can measure how strong the linear relationship is.
What the VALUE of r tells us:
The value of r is always between –1 and +1: –1 ≤ r ≤ 1.
The size of the correlation r indicates the...

Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
