Perspectives of Artificial Intelligence in Training and Exercise

Abstract
:

The availability of miniaturized sensors for measuring a wide variety of parameters, powerful computer technologies, and a wide range of artificial intelligence methods are opening up more and more support options for sports training and exercise.

In his talk, Prof. Baca will present current developments and perspectives for the use of respective systems and illustrate this with examples from his own research. These include feedback systems which, based on the recognition of movement patterns, provide recommendations for modifying movement execution, as well as methods for analyzing tactics in game sports based on position data with a focus on soccer and basketball.
