چکیده
Squash is a racquet sport played in a similar style room as racquetball. In a squash match there are 2 players that alternate hitting a small, black, rubber ball. A complete match is played as best of 5 games, where each game is played to 11 points. Points are scored when a player fails to return a shot made by the opponent. The sport of squash is played in over 190 countries by millions of people all over the world. Yet to this day, no one has taken a truly analytical approach to the sport. Data analytics has recently been a popular topic of conversation in sports, with analytical systems already in place for popular sports like basketball and baseball.

Two players are visible from bird’s eye perspective as they move around the squash court. System recovers position of each of the players on each frame and presents the results in real time on computer screen. Method for automatic tracker ...
متن کاملOn the Detection of Space-Time Patterns in Squash Using Dynamical Analysis
Previous research has interpreted the patterned relations produced from the spacetime interactions of squash players as a dynamical system. Importantly, the theoretical basis for pattern formation within dynamical systems is predicated upon the shared information exchanges among the parts that comprise them. Thus, the patterned dynamics of a squash rally are the supposed product of shared infor...

متن کاملOptimal Decision for the Squash Player
Abstract. The player of squash has a choice between two options when his/her opponent changes the score from 8:7 to 8:8. The player to receive has to decide whether to play until 9th or until 10th point. We observe in this paper that the score of the squash game can be modelled as a Markov chain. Thus using standard techniques of Markov processes, we can derive the optimal strategy for the squa...
