Live-Ticker Supported Sports-Video Annotation Enabling Tactic Analysis

International audienceAutomatic semantic annotation of videos remains an openresearch problem. In the domain of soccer matches, live tickers are freelyavailable on the Internet. These tickers can be used as sources of informationabout the events of a soccer match: as they are written by humans,they contain semantic information. This work presents a prototype thatprocesses live ticker texts and transforms them into machine-readable annotations.The prototype produces semantic annotated actions as RDFgraphs.The resulting annotation may be used for other purposes, suchas tactical analysis of the match, semantic multimedia query processingor assistance to other video annotation tools
