Multimodal Injury Risk Prediction in Tennis

The paper introduces PART, a multimodal predictive framework for tennis that combines physiological, training, sleep, questionnaire, jump, and video data from nine collegiate players to assess overall wellness, injury risk, physical capability, and playing style. Using machine learning and deep learning, PART provides holistic athlete assessments and forecasts specific injury risks to body areas such as elbows and knees. Evaluation shows strong performance in predicting wellness and injury risk, with potential benefits for recreational players who often injure themselves due to poor technique.

Event Detection in Table Tennis Videos using 2D Keypoints

The paper introduces EventNet, a two‑stage pipeline that uses 2D keypoints of players, table corners, and the ball to detect key events in table tennis videos. First, a keypoint transformer condenses the pose and ball information into a robust representation; second, a transformer encoder predicts how close each frame is to the next and previous ball‑racket contact using a novel temporal cosine‑like target signal. Experiments on Latte‑MV and TTHQ datasets show high accuracy, with an F1 score of 91.16% and a mean frame deviation of 0.42 on Latte‑MV, and 73.08% / 1.16 on TTHQ.
