Abstract: Systems and methods are described to analyze visual data and trajectory data from sports and games, to determine the content of the input data and detect actions and events, quantitatively measure their impact on the future activities and events and make predictions. In real-time, at every moment of the game, the probability of the next action/event in the game is estimated; the impact of the current state of the game on the future outcomes are predicted; and the current player action/match event is labelled. More specifically, given a predefined objective, a quantitative value is assigned to the input data based on the current observation characterizing the probability of reaching an objective, or incremental changes to that probability based on the observed state of the game from the video or trajectory data.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for creating and evaluating computational models for games (e.g., individual or team sports games, etc.), team performance, and individual player performance evaluation. The method comprises obtaining data associated with the team game, the information comprising at least one individual player activity, at least one team activity, at least one game event, and a location in space and time for each of the events and activities; generating quantitative values for the data associated with the team game; and evaluating either or both an individual player and a team using the quantitative values.

Abstract: The invention relates to a banderole handling device including at least one cassette arranged for supplying banderoles to a banderoling machine, a closure for the discharge end of each cassette and including a cassette support, wherein each cassette is arranged substantially vertically at the cassette support and is positionable above a banderole feeder chute of the banderoling machine. In addition, the invention relates to device for arresting a cassette including banderoles relative to a banderole feeder chute of a banderoling machine, including a closure for the discharge opening of the cassette wherein the closure is configured so that it is accommodated in a receiving portion arranged in a fixed position relative to the banderoling machine or banderole feeder chute during its opening operation. The invention relates further to a system for filling cassettes with stacks of banderoles, in which the cassettes are filled by means of a banderole stack feeder.
