News

(2023/02/08) We have finished fixing the datasets and have also uploaded extra footage with complete annotations! The dataset can be downloaded from Kaggle.
(2022/11/03) After receving reports of erroneous data, we have fixed and reuploaded a majority of SoccerTrack. We are also adding videos with visualized bounding boxes so that you can be sure that the data is good. The visualizations can be found in the viz_results directory under Top-view/Wide-view (see Kaggle). We have created a spreadsheet to keep everyone updated on our progress. Spreadsheet Link

All data in SoccerTrack was obtained from 11-vs-11 soccer games between college-aged athletes. Measurements were conducted after we received the approval of Tsukuba university’s ethics committee, and all participants provided signed informed permission. After recording several soccer matches, the videos were semi-automatically annotated based on the GNSS coordinates of each player.

Below are low resolution samples from the soccertrack dataset we plan to release. The actual dataset will contains (drone) and 8K (fisheye) footage!

Drone Video

drone_viz_30.mp4

Fisheye Video

fisheye_viz_30.mp4

Note The resolution for the fisheye camera may change after calibration.

Dataset Download

All the data can be downloaded from Kaggle!

For more details on how to use the dataset, please see the section "Dataset Preparation".

Install

pip

The software can be installed using pip.

pip install soccertrack

You will neeed to install the following dependencies:

pip install torch torchvision pytorch-lightning

To use torch reid, you will need to install the following dependencies:

pip install git+https://github.com/KaiyangZhou/deep-person-reid.git

We recommed using poetry to handle dependencies. So install poetry and run the following command:

poetry install
poetry run pip install torch torchvision pytorch-lightning 
poetry run pip install git+https://github.com/KaiyangZhou/deep-person-reid.git

Note The software is currently in development so it will break and change frequently!
