MMSports'21: 4th International Workshop on Multimedia Content Analysis in Sports

The fourth ACM International Workshop on Multimedia Content Analysis in Sports (ACM MMSports'21) is part of the ACM International Conference on Multimedia 2021 (ACM Multimedia 2021). Exceptionally, due to the corona pandemic, the workshop is held virtually. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to address challenges and report progress in mining, analyzing, understanding and visualizing the multimedia/multimodal data in sports, sports broadcasts, sports games and sports medicine. The combination of sports and modern technology offers a novel and intriguing field of research with promising approaches for visual broadcast augmentation and understanding, statistical analysis and evaluation, and sensor fusion during workouts as well as competitions. There is a lack of research communities focusing on the fusion of multiple modalities. We are helping to close this research gap with this workshop series on multimedia content analysis in sports.
