Wide Open Gazes: Quantifying Visual Exploratory Behavior in Soccer with Pose Enhanced Positional Data

  • 基于头部肩部角度建模连续视觉范围,生成动态视野图。
  • 视野覆盖度等指标可预测控球后场地价值提升,准确率高。
  • 无需人工标注,适配现有足球分析系统,已开源工具。

传统足球视觉探索行为评估依赖头动超过125°/秒的动作计数,存在位置偏倚(如聚焦中前卫)、标注困难、二值测量局限,且无法预测短期比赛成功,也不兼容传球控制等基础分析模型。本研究提出一种公式化的连续随机视觉层,利用姿态增强的时空追踪数据量化球员视觉感知。通过概率性视野与遮挡模型,结合头部和肩部旋转角,构建速度相关的二维俯视视野图。将视野图与传球控制、场地价值表面融合,分析接球前等待阶段与后续持球阶段。基于32场同步姿态追踪数据及2024年美洲杯持球事件数据,证明聚合视觉指标(如等待时观察到的受防区域比例)能有效预测控球结束时获得的场地价值。该方法不依赖球员位置,免人工标注,输出连续数据,可无缝融入现有足球分析框架。为促进集成,研究团队开源全部计算工具。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Traditional approaches to measuring visual exploratory behavior in soccer rely on counting visual exploratory actions (VEAs) based on rapid head movements exceeding 125°/s, but this method suffer from player position bias (i.e., a focus on central midfielders), annotation challenges, binary measurement constraints (i.e., a player is scanning, or not), lack the power to predict relevant short-term in-game future success, and are incompatible with fundamental soccer analytics models such as pitch control. This research introduces a novel formulaic continuous stochastic vision layer to quantify players' visual perception from pose-enhanced spatiotemporal tracking. Our probabilistic field-of-view and occlusion models incorporate head and shoulder rotation angles to create speed-dependent vision maps for individual players in a two-dimensional top-down plane. We combine these vision maps with pitch control and pitch value surfaces to analyze the awaiting phase (when a player is awaiting the ball to arrive after a pass for a teammate) and their subsequent on-ball phase. We demonstrate that aggregated visual metrics - such as the percentage of defended area observed while awaiting a pass - are predictive of controlled pitch value gained at the end of dribbling actions using 32 games of synchronized pose-enhanced tracking data and on-ball event data from the 2024 Copa America. This methodology works regardless of player position, eliminates manual annotation requirements, and provides continuous measurements that seamlessly integrate into existing soccer analytics frameworks. To further support the integration with existing soccer analytics frameworks we open-source the tools required to make these calculations.
