An Adaptive Vision System for Tracking Soccer Players from Variable Camera Settings
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present ASPOGAMO, a vision system capable of estimating motion trajectories of soccer players taped on video. The system performs well in a multitude of application scenarios because of its adaptivity to various camera setups, such as single or multiple camera settings, static or dynamic ones. Furthermore, ASPOGAMO can directly process image streams taken from TV broadcast, and extract all valuable information despite scene interruptions and cuts between different cameras. The system achieves a high level of robustness through the use of modelbased vision algorithms for camera estimation and player recognition and a probabilistic multi-player tracking framework capable of dealing with occlusion situations typical in team-sports. The continuous interplay between these submodules is adding to both the reliability and the efficiency of the overall system.

Tracking soccer players based on homography among multiple views
In this paper, we propose a method of tracking soccer players using multiple views. As many researches have done on soccer scene analysis by using trajectories of the players and the soccer ball, it is desirable to track soccer players robustly. Soccer player tracking enables strategy analysis, scene recovery, making scenes for broadcasting, and automatic system of the camera control. However, ...
متن کاملTracking Soccer Player Using Multiple Views
In this paper, we propose a method of tracking a soccer player using multiple cameras. For tracking soccer players, occlusion is always the big problem and tracking is often failed when only a single camera is used to take the scene. Therefore, we use multiple view images for avoiding the occlusion problem, so that we can obtain robustness in player tracking. In our method, inner-camera operati...
متن کاملTracking Players in Low-Resolution Videos of Soccer Games
This thesis concerns the topic of tracking soccer players. The problem is to select the best from relevant methods for tracking a single soccer player in a low-resolution video sequence captured by a single static camera. Achieving this is the basis for developing a system for tracking soccer players in low-resolution videos with multi-camera approach, which is the project assigned by the Softw...
متن کاملExtracting 3D information from broadcast soccer video
In this paper, we propose a new method to estimate players’ and ball’s positions from monocular broadcast soccer video. With the relationship between objects and the camera in perspective projection, we derive the formula for estimating the moving objects’ positions in real world, even when the ball is in the air. This method calibrates the camera’s position in the stadium through the homograph...
متن کاملThe relationship between static lower extremity alignment and injuries in adolescent soccer players
The incidence of lower extremity injuries in young soccer players is high, but the risk factors for injuries are unknown. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate relationship between static lower extremity alignment and injuries in adolescent soccer players. Four teams (78 players) playing at Tehran Asia vision adolescence primer league (14-16 years old) participated in this study. Befor...
