Bayesian GARCH Modeling of Functional Sports Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The use of statistical methods in sport analytics has gained a rapidly growing interest over the last decade, and nowadays is common practice. In particular, the interest in understanding and predicting an athlete's performance throughout his/her career is motivated by the need to evaluate the efficacy of training programs, anticipate fatigue to ...

Scaling in Athletic World Records [PDF]

open access: yes2000 Nature, Vol. 404, p. 244, 2000
World records in athletics provide a measure of physical as well as physiological human performance. Here we analyse running records and show that the mean speed as a function of race time can be described by two scaling laws that have a breakpoint at about 150-170 seconds (corresponding to the ~1,000 m race).

Athlete rating in multi-competitor games with scored outcomes via monotone transformations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022

For games with scored outcomes, a common approach is to assume observed game scores follow a normal distribution conditional on athletes' latent abilities, which may change over time. In many games, however, this assumption of conditional normality does not hold.

SportsTrack: An Innovative Method for Tracking Athletes in Sports Scenes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The SportsMOT dataset aims to solve multiple object tracking of athletes in different sports scenes such as basketball or soccer. The dataset is challenging because of the unstable camera view, athletes' complex trajectory, and complicated background. Previous MOT methods can not match enough high-quality tracks of athletes.
