The system for analysis of player motion during sport matches, developed at University of Ljubljana is presented. The system allows for non-intrusive measurement of positions of all players in indoor sports through whole match, using only inexpensive video equipment cameras mounted on the ceiling of the sports hall. Tracking process (obtaining trajectories from videos) is automatic and only sup...

the purpose of this research was to aesthetically investigate and to analyze live multi-camera television broadcast of soccer matches. the research method was qualitative with in-depth and semi-open interviews. the statistical population consisted of 15 national and international sport producers and directors out of which 10 subjects were purposively selected as the sample of the study. this st...

In sport tournaments where teams compete in match play format, the pairing of players in matches is critical to the final outcomes. This paper presents simulation models using only commonplace spreadsheet software to analyze and compare strategies in such pairings based on actual or estimated performance of individual players. The approach can be a useful decision support tool for captains and ...

Performance   evaluation in regular periods is one of the ways in which organizations can   evaluate their performance as well as weak and strong points unifiedly and   precisely. These days, mathematical models are also used to evaluate the   efficiency and productivity of various units. These units are a collection of   education, research and service activities as input and output factors an...

Rugby sevens is a rapidly growing sport. Match analysis is increasingly being used by sport scientists and coaches to improve the understanding of the physical demands of this sport. This study investigated the physical and physiological demands of elite men's rugby sevens, with special reference to the temporal patterns of fatigue during match play. Nine players, 4 backs and 5 forwards (age 25...

The influence of game location on performance has been widely examined in sport contexts. Concerning soccer, game-location affects positively the secondary and tertiary level of performance; however, there are fewer evidences about its effect on game structure (primary level of performance). This study aimed to detect the effect of game location on a primary level of performance in soccer. In p...

This paper aims to automatically extract and classify self-consumable sport video highlights. For this purpose, we will emphasize the benefits of using play-break sequences as the effective inputs for HMMbased classifier. HMM is used to model the stochastic pattern of high-level states during specific sport highlights which correspond to the sequence of generic audio-visual measurements extract...
