1 ^st ACM international workshop on multimedia content analysis in sports

The first ACM International Workshop on Multimedia Content Analysis in Sports (ACM MMSports'18) is held in Seoul, South Korea on October 26th, 2018 and is co-located with the ACM International Conference on Multimedia 2018 (ACM Multimedia 2018). The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to address challenges and report progress in mining and content analysis of multimedia/multimodal data in sports. The combination of sports and modern technology offers a novel and intriguing field of research with promising approaches for visual broadcast augmentation, understanding, statistical analysis and evaluation, and sensor fusion. There is a lack of research communities focusing on the fusion of multiple modalities. We are helping to close this research gap with this first workshop of a serious workshops on multimedia content analysis in sports.
