• Title: Automated Hit-frame Detection for Badminton Match Analysis
• Authors: Yu-Hang Chien, Fang Yu
• Abstract summary: This research aims to advance sports analysis in badminton, systematically detecting hit-frames automatically from match videos using modern deep learning techniques. The data included in hit-frames can subsequently be utilized to synthesize players' strokes and on-court movement, as well as for other downstream applications such as analyzing training tasks and competition strategy. In the study, we achieved 99% accuracy on shot angle recognition for video trimming, over 92% accuracy for applying player keypoints sequences on shuttlecock flying direction prediction, and reported the evaluation results of rally-wise video trimming and hit-frame detection.

• Abstract: Sports professionals constantly under pressure to perform at the highest level can benefit from sports analysis, which allows coaches and players to reduce manual efforts and systematically evaluate their performance using automated tools. This research aims to advance sports analysis in badminton, systematically detecting hit-frames automatically from match videos using modern deep learning techniques. The data included in hit-frames can subsequently be utilized to synthesize players' strokes and on-court movement, as well as for other downstream applications such as analyzing training tasks and competition strategy. The proposed approach in this study comprises several automated procedures like rally-wise video trimming, player and court keypoints detection, shuttlecock flying direction prediction, and hit-frame detection. In the study, we achieved 99% accuracy on shot angle recognition for video trimming, over 92% accuracy for applying player keypoints sequences on shuttlecock flying direction prediction, and reported the evaluation results of rally-wise video trimming and hit-frame detection.

  Action spotting involves understanding the dynamics of the game, the complexity of events, and the variation of video sequences. In this work, we focus on the former by (a) identifying and representing the players, referees, and goalkeepers as nodes in a graph, and by (b) modeling their temporal interactions as sequences of graphs. For the player identification task, our method obtains an overall performance of 57.83% average-mAP by combining it with other modalities.
