Soccer Key Player Extraction Using Delaunay Triangulation

Abstract

We have been modeled based on real soccer data analysis in RoboCup Soccer Simulation 2D. In the case of a soccer game, it is considered that soccer players share cooperative patterns in a pass scene. In this research, we analyze the positional relationship between teammate and opponent team member using Delaunay Triangulation. Furthermore, the key player which receives a pass is extracted from the gaze direction of the ball holder.
