Abstract
Methods and systems for finding and ranking video sequences that contain tactical sequences (e.g., an uninterrupted portion of a sporting event) that are similar to tactical event content in a target video sequence, such as those occurring in sports, include learning and labelling (e.g., through use of metadata and the like) tactically significant sequences in a plurality of video segments, including a plurality of such tactically significant sequences in a single video segment.
Claims20
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that adapt at least one processor to:
- receive a video feed comprising a sequence of video frames captured by a camera;
- detect a game chance sequence from the sequence of video frames;
- determine a tactical relevance weighting associated with elements that are visible in at least a portion of the game chance sequence;
- and
- identify, from a library of stored game chance sequences and associated visible element tactical relevance weightings, at least one stored game chance sequence that is tactically similar to the game chance sequence from the video feed based on the associated visible element tactical relevance weightings of the stored game chance sequences and the tactical relevance weighting associated with the elements of the game chance sequence.
A method comprising:
- receiving a video feed comprising a sequence of video frames captured by a camera;
- detecting a game chance sequence from the sequence of video frames;
- determining a tactical relevance weighting associated with elements that are visible in at least a portion of the game chance sequence;
- and
- identifying, from a library of stored game chance sequences and associated visible element tactical relevance weightings, at least one stored game chance sequence that is tactically similar to the game chance sequence from the video feed based on the associated visible element tactical relevance weightings of the stored game chance sequences and the tactical relevance weighting associated with the elements of the game chance sequence.
