Badminton is a fast-paced sport that requires a strategic combination of spatial, temporal, and technical tactics. To gain a competitive edge at high-level competitions, badminton professionals frequently analyze match videos to gain…
Analysis of player movements is a crucial subset of sports analysis. Existing player movement analysis methods use recorded videos after the match is over. In this work, we propose an end-to-end framework for player movement analysis for…
Coordinating the motion between lower and upper limbs and aligning limb control with perception are substantial challenges in robotics, particularly in dynamic environments. To this end, we introduce an approach for enabling legged mobile…
We present ShuttleEnv, an interactive and data-driven simulation environment for badminton, designed to support reinforcement learning and strategic behavior analysis in fast-paced adversarial sports. The environment is grounded in…
Computer vision based object tracking has been used to annotate and augment sports video. For sports learning and training, video replay is often used in post-match review and training review for tactical analysis and movement analysis. For…
In this paper, our objective is to improve the performance of the existing framework ShuttleNet in predicting badminton shot types and locations by leveraging past strokes. We participated in the CoachAI Badminton Challenge at IJCAI 2023…
Realizing versatile and human-like performance in high-demand sports like badminton remains a formidable challenge for humanoid robotics. Unlike standard locomotion or static manipulation, this task demands a seamless integration of…
Recent techniques for analyzing sports precisely has stimulated various approaches to improve player performance and fan engagement. However, existing approaches are only able to evaluate offline performance since testing in real-time…
Quantifying impact phenomena in badminton smashes is important for evaluating both athletic performance and equipment; however, conventional measurement systems involve trade-offs between temporal resolution, data efficiency, and…
We introduce the most comprehensive publicly available datasets for mixed doubles curling, constructed from eleven top-level tournaments from the CurlIT (https://curlit.com/results) Results Booklets spanning 53 countries, 1,112 games, and…
Multi-object tracking, player identification, and pose estimation are fundamental components of sports analytics, essential for analyzing player movements, performance, and tactical strategies. However, existing datasets and methodologies…
Modeling each hit as a multivariate event in racket sports and conducting sequential analysis aids in assessing player/team performance and identifying successful tactics for coaches and analysts. However, the complex correlations among…
This paper presents CourtMotion, a spatiotemporal modeling framework for analyzing and predicting game events and plays as they develop in professional basketball. Anticipating basketball events requires understanding both physical motion…
Understanding tactical dynamics in badminton requires analyzing entire matches rather than isolated clips. However, existing badminton datasets mainly focus on short clips or task-specific annotations and rarely provide full-match data with…
A human-like chess engine should mimic the style, errors, and consistency of a strong human player rather than maximize playing strength. We show that training from move sequences alone forces a model to learn two capabilities: state…
During the 2017 NBA playoffs, Celtics coach Brad Stevens was faced with a difficult decision when defending against the Cavaliers: "Do you double and risk giving up easy shots, or stay at home and do the best you can?" It's a tough call,…
In the domain of Sport Analytics, Global Positioning Systems devices are intensively used as they permit to retrieve players' movements. Team sports' managers and coaches are interested on the relation between players' patterns of movements…
Tactical understanding in badminton involves interpreting not only individual actions but also how tactics are dynamically executed over time. In this paper, we propose \textbf{Shot2Tactic-Caption}, a novel framework for semantic and…
Real-time 3D trajectory player tracking in sports plays a crucial role in tactical analysis, performance evaluation, and enhancing spectator experience. Traditional systems rely on multi-camera setups, but are constrained by the inherently…
This study aims to analyze the service and return landing areas in badminton men's double, based on data extracted from 20 badminton matches. We find that most services land near the center-line, while returns tend to land in the crossing…
