It allows people to interact irrespective of their social status, age etc. With the rise of the mass media, a significant quantity of resources has been channeled into sports in order to improve understanding, performance and presentation. For example, areas like performance assessment, which were previously mainly of interest to coaches and sports scientists are now finding applications in broadcast and other media, driven by the increasing use of on-line sports viewing which provides a way of making all sorts of performance statistics available to viewers. Computer vision has recently started to play an important role in sports as seen in for example football where computer vision-based graphics in real-time enhances different aspects of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Computer vision algorithms have a huge potential in many aspects of sports ranging from automatic annotation of broadcast footage, through to better understand of sport injuries, and enhanced viewing. So far the use of computer vision in sports has been scattered between different disciplines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Call for papers<br \/> <\/strong>The ambition of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from different disciplines to share ideas and methods on current and future use of computer vision in sports. To this end we welcome computer vision-based research contributions as well as best-practice contributions focusing on the following (and similar) topics:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; estimation of position and motion of cameras and participants in sports<br \/> &#8211; tracking people and objects in sports<br \/> &#8211; activity recognition in sports<br \/> &#8211; event detection in sports<br \/> &#8211; spectator monitoring<br \/> &#8211; annotation and indexing in sports<br \/> &#8211; graphical effects in sports<br \/> &#8211; analysis of injuries in sports<br \/> &#8211; performance assessment in sports<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/> Important dates<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Submission deadline: TBA <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Notification of acceptance: TBA<\/li>\n<li>Camera ready version: April 27 2017<\/li>\n<li>Workshop date: July 21 or 26 2017<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><br \/> Submission instructions<br \/> <\/strong>Same as for CVPR: <a title=\"Link\" href=\"http:\/\/cvpr2017.thecvf.com\/submission\/main_conference\/author_guidelines\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/> Program committee:<br \/> <\/strong>TBA<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Organizers<br \/> <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:tbm@create.aau.dk\">Thomas Moeslund<\/a>, Aalborg University, Denmark<br \/> <a href=\"mailto:graham.thomas@bbc.co.uk\">Graham Thomas<\/a>, BBC, UK<br \/> <a href=\"mailto:a.hilton@surrey.ac.uk\">Adrian Hilton<\/a>, University of Surrey, UK<br \/> <a href=\"mailto:carr@disneyresearch.com\">Peter Carr<\/a>, Disney Research, Pittsburgh, USA<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/> Previous activities related to computer vision in sports:<br \/> <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vap.aau.dk\/cvsports\/?page_id=30\">1st IEEE International Workshop on Computer Vision in Sports (at CVPR 2013)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vap.aau.dk\/cvsports\/?page_id=771\">2nd IEEE International Workshop on Computer Vision in Sports (at ICCV 2015)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.springer.com\/us\/book\/9783319093956\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Computer Vision in Sports<br \/> <\/a>Editors: Moeslund, Thomas B., Thomas, Graham, Hilton, Adrian (Eds.)<br \/> Springer 2014<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><br \/> Overall Meeting Sponsors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cv-foundation.org\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-729\" title=\"cvf\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vap.aau.dk\/cvsports\/wp-content\/images\/admt\/cvf.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"177\" height=\"117\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.computer.org\/portal\/web\/guest\/home\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-730\" title=\"ieee_cs\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vap.aau.dk\/cvsports\/wp-content\/images\/admt\/ieee_cs.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"285\" height=\"106\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243;][et_pb_column _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||0px||&#8221;] Motivation Sports is said to be the social glue of society.
