On May 29, 2018 the SciSports company announced intention to use the system of computer vision on the FIFA World Cup of 2018 to make the broad and objective picture of game events at matches of the national team of Belgium.
All events will be fixed in the field in real time by the system of the cameras BallJames, further based on video will be generated 3D - data. As a result of work of such system complete idea of a game forms and there is an opportunity to monitor and to objectively estimate actions and efficiency of each certain athlete and a command in general.
For creation exact 3D - images a system should distinguish players, judges and a ball. For this purpose the system of cameras and instruments of data collection were integrated with the solution SAS Event Stream Processing – it allows to recognize images in real time using models of deep training which are integrated on the SAS Viya platform.
Use of algorithms of machine learning for calculation of quality, potential and cost of players, helps clubs to find the players corresponding to certain criteria and to analyze the opponents.
