TLDR
A classification of team tracking systems applied to sports is proposed by distinguishing them into two main categories: intrusive and nonintrusive, which are further refined into outdoor and indoor sports applications.Abstract:
Recent years have brought an increasing interest on analyzing efficiently the performance of sports players during training sessions and games. The information collected from such analysis is very valuable to educators and coaches since it allows them to better understand the difficulties of a trainee, a player or even an entire team and formulate adequate training and strategic plans accordingly. In order to perform this analysis in a consistent and systematic way, sophisticated sensory systems and data processing techniques are needed. This paper presents a survey on relevant work, current techniques and trends on the area of team tracking systems applied to sports. We propose a classification of these systems by distinguishing them into two main categories: intrusive and nonintrusive. Nonintrusive systems are further refined into outdoor and indoor sports applications. The specific characteristics of each system are itemized, including the identification of the strong points and limitations. Finally, the paper highlights some open issues and research opportunities on this area.read more

Visual Tracking: An Experimental Survey
Arnold W. M. Smeulders,Dung M. Chu,Rita Cucchiara,Simone Calderara,Afshin Dehghan,Mubarak Shah +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that trackers can be evaluated objectively by survival curves, Kaplan Meier statistics, and Grubs testing, and it is found that in the evaluation practice the F-score is as effective as the object tracking accuracy (OTA) score.

Content-Aware Summarization of Broadcast Sports Videos: An Audio–Visual Feature Extraction Approach
TL;DR: This paper proposes a method for automatically generating highlights from broadcast sports videos by extracting audio and visual features from a sports video using SIFT features, and automatically learns the scorebox template from a broadcast sports video and locates and extracts thetemplate from a video stream.

Tracking by Identification Using Computer Vision and Radio
TL;DR: A novel system for detection, localization and tracking of multiple people, which fuses a multi-view computer vision approach with a radio-based localization system that achieves better localization results, while at the same time it successfully prevents propagation of identity switches that occur in pure computer-vision-based tracking.

Tracking soccer players aiming their kinematical motion analysis
TL;DR: A new way of trating occlusions is presented by splitting segmented blobs based on morphological operators and a backward and forward graph representation which allows an increasing in the number of frames automatically tracked.
