Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll construct event sequence graphs to reveal interesting information about soccer games. You’ll work to find longest pass sequences, most important players, and to understand the spatial structure of the game. You’ll define and visualize these graphs, and use connected components to find interesting event subsequences. You’ll quickly be able to uncover insights such as the most important players and the spatial structuring of the playing pitch.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
