Yes, now I understand. I think what made it hard for me conceptually was that P(Rj) can be rewritten n different ways for each feature ci 1 <= i <= n. I had this problem with your example too. I first thought that the lines with the factors were arbitarary, but then I realized that each line goes with one way of rewriting P(Rj) it all became clear.
Quoting Rémi Coulom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
to Magnus: If you consider the example of section 2.2: 1,2,3 wins against 4,2 and 1,5,6,7. The probability is P=c1c2c3/(c1c2c3+c4c2+c1c5c6c7). For this example: N1j=c2c3,B1j=0,M1j=c2c3+c5c6c7,A1j=c4c2 N2j=c1c3,B2j=0 N3j=c1c2,B3j=0 N4j=0,B4j=c1c2c3 I will add this example to the paper if it makes things clearer. Regarding the definition of Wi, |{Nij|Nij!=0}| means "number of elements of the set of all the Nij that verify Nij!=0". It is incorrect. It should be |{j|Nij!=0}|. I'll fix it in the final version. As I wrote in the next sentence, it is equal to the number of wins of i.
