Francisco Louzada

ICMC-USP

NWO-FAPESP Joint Workshop: Research on Sports and Healthy Living

March 22-23 2016, São Paulo, Brazil.


In the talk I discuss virtual assessment in sport

by proposing a statistical expert system for

analyzing sport data in real time as a powerful

tool for talent identification (focus on soccer).

The so called iSports, which allows for

monitoring and continuous comparison of

athletes in a simple and efficient way.

iSports – Football Module – helping Coachs!


iSports – Football Module

It is a detection tool for Sport Talents

The tool enables comparisons among athletes.

Such comparisons are made in real time,

allowing to compare and sort the athletes

according to their abilities, especially

highlighting the possible talents.


INSPIRATION

The detection of sport talents:

It is extremely subjective (usually

based on perceptions of scouts and

coaches).

It may demand a long time.

As consequence, various possible

talents may not be discovered.

MOTIVATION


INSPIRATION

Neymar, now on the Spanish

club Barcelona, began his

career at age of 6 (1998).

He was transferred to the base

category of Santos soccer

team at 11 years old (2003).

At least 5 years to be discovered as a possible

talent!

MOTIVATION

He was transferred to the Santos principal team at 17

years old (2009).


INSPIRATION

Didier Drogba signed his first pro contract

when he was 21. He had never attended a

football academy and only began daily

football training as a fully grown adult.

Footballers that Made It Late

Miroslav Klose, a brick-layer before starting

football at 5th division of Germany, only

demonstrated his talent on the world stage at

the World Cup 2002, where he claimed the

Golden Boot.

Javi Varas arrived at Sevilla FC aged 23, after

having only played amateur football

in Andalusia, Spain.

INSPIRATION

On August 2015, Marcelo

Rocha, a 43 year old postman,

from Adamantina (SP), win the

Third Edition of the Mizuno

Uphill Marathon, at Santa

Catarina State, Brazil”.

He has left behind various of the

best known international

competitors.

If he had been discovered in a young age,

certainly would be a potential to go further.

MOTIVATION

which allows for various possible comparisons

center, increasing the knowledge of the athletes

in training phase at any school, city or region.

It may promotes and popularizes the statistical

science applied to sport.
