In the context of sports training and strategies, are there any works applying artificial intelligence techniques or computing models to assist on sports training or strategies? Conferences or journals to recommend? For example, a model to assist football coaches to plan practices given the adversaries' characteristics and season schedule...
This question is really broad, so it is difficult to give a specific answer. You can assist a Coach using instruments to measure efficiency and ergonomy or intensity of movements, cardiac pulse rate, energy consumption, oxygen saturation and many other biometric factors. You can also detect many chemical or hormonal parameters, from saliva or blood.You can "intelligently" cross correlate this data in order to improve efficiency and performance of sport results of an athlete.
You can also use a video camera as a tool to analyze performance in team sport, the relative movements and strategies of players, ball possession, speed of athletes, and many other cross collective parameters, automating all the measurement tasks. And you can also arrive to some automatic quantitative conclusions. No one can substituite all the expertize of a real coach. But it is a good challenge.
Thanks, Stefano. I am pretty new to this field, so I am looking for resources such as papers and articles. Given that I am looking for works related to applying computing (artificial intellgence) to help a coach to define a practice plan (prioritize which areas of a team/athlete needs to be worked on given the goals), which conferences and journals do you recommend for me to start looking?
Thanks, César. Do you know any scientific conferences that I could take a look?
