Abstract: This study proposes a simple method for multi-object tracking (MOT) of players in a badminton court. We leverage two off-the-shelf cameras, one on the top of the court and the other on the side of the court. The one on the top is to track players' trajectories, while the one on the side is to analyze the pixel features of players. By computing the correlations between adjacent frames and engaging the information of the two cameras, MOT of badminton players is obtained. This two-camera approach addresses the challenge of player occlusion and overlapping in a badminton court, providing player trajectory tracking and multi-angle analysis. The presented system offers insights into the positions and movements of badminton players, thus serving as a coaching or self-training tool for badminton players to improve their gaming strategies.

BST: Badminton Stroke-type Transformer for Skeleton-based Action Recognition in Racket Sports [0.0]
We introduce a novel video segmentation strategy to extract frames of each player's racket swing in a badminton broadcast match. We propose Badminton Stroke-type Transformer (BST) to classify player stroke-types in singles.

Investigating Event-Based Cameras for Video Frame Interpolation in Sports [59.755469098797406]
We present a first investigation of event-based Video Frame Interpolation (VFI) models for generating sports slow-motion videos. Particularly, we design and implement a bi-camera recording setup, including an RGB and an event-based camera to capture sports videos, to temporally align and spatially register both cameras. Our experimental validation demonstrates that TimeLens, an off-the-shelf event-based VFI model, can effectively generate slow-motion footage for sports videos.

SoccerNet Game State Reconstruction: End-to-End Athlete Tracking and Identification on a Minimap [102.5232204867158]
We formalize the task of Game State Reconstruction and introduce SoccerNet-GSR, a novel Game State Reconstruction dataset focusing on football videos. SoccerNet-GSR is composed of 200 video sequences of 30 seconds, annotated with 9.37 million line points for pitch localization and camera calibration. Our experiments show that GSR is a challenging novel task, which opens the field for future research.

Towards Real-Time Analysis of Broadcast Badminton Videos [29.633481528698844]
We propose an end-to-end framework for player movement analysis for badminton matches on live broadcast match videos. Unlike other approaches which use multi-modal sensor data, our approach uses only visual cues. Our framework was successfully used to analyze live broadcast matches in real-time during the Premier Badminton League 2019.

SportsMOT: A Large Multi-Object Tracking Dataset in Multiple Sports Scenes [44.46768991505495]
We present a new large-scale multi-object tracking dataset in diverse sports scenes, coined as emphSportsMOT. It consists of 240 video sequences, over 150K frames and over 1.6M bounding boxes collected from 3 sports categories, including basketball, volleyball and football. We propose a new multi-object tracking framework, termed as emphMixSort, introducing a MixFormer-like structure as an auxiliary association model to prevailing tracking-by-detection trackers.

Tracking by Associating Clips [110.08925274049409]
In this paper, we investigate an alternative by treating object association as clip-wise matching. Our new perspective views a single long video sequence as multiple short clips, and then the tracking is performed both within and between the clips. The benefits of this new approach are two folds. First, our method is robust to tracking error accumulation or propagation, as the video chunking allows bypassing the interrupted frames. Second, the multiple frame information is aggregated during the clip-wise matching, resulting in a more accurate long-range track association than the current frame-wise matching.

This work consists of 2,721 video clips collected from the broadcasting videos of professional table tennis matches in World Table Tennis Championships and Olympiads. We formulate two sets of action detection problems -- emphaction localization and emphaction recognition. The results confirm that TheName is still a challenging task and can be used as a special benchmark for dense action detection from videos.
