Skill-Based Differences in Spatio-Temporal Team Behavior in Defence of The Ancients 2
Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games are among the most played digital games in the world. In these games, teams of players fight against each other in arena environments, and the gameplay is focused on tactical combat. Mastering MOBAs requires extensive practice, as is exemplified in the popular MOBA Defence of the Ancients 2 (DotA 2). In this paper, we present three data-driven measures of spatio-temporal behavior in DotA 2: 1) Zone changes; 2) Distribution of team members and: 3) Time series clustering via a fuzzy approach. We present a method for obtaining accurate positional data from DotA 2. We investigate how behavior varies across these measures as a function of the skill level of teams, using four tiers from novice to professional players. Results indicate that spatio-temporal behavior of MOBA teams is related to team skill, with professional teams having smaller within-team distances and conducting more zone changes than amateur teams. The temporal distribution of the within-team distances of professional and high-skilled teams also generally follows patterns distinct from lower skill ranks.

Sports AnalyticsFrom Multimodal Observation to Interpretable Suggestions: Counterfactual Time-Expanded Relational Modeling of Surgical Teams
In surgery, patient safety is threatened not only by technical issues but also by poor teamwork. However, existing surgical AI-based solutions focus mainly on visual workflow and technical execution, neglecting the model…
Representing and Discovering Adversarial Team Behaviors Using Player Roles
In this paper, we describe a method to represent and discover adversarial group behavior in a continuous domain. In comparison to other types of behavior, adversarial behavior is heavily structured as the location of a p…
Game State and Spatio-temporal Action Detection in Soccer using Graph Neural Networks and 3D Convolutional Networks
Soccer analytics rely on two data sources: the player positions on the pitch and the sequences of events they perform. With around 2000 ball events per game, their precise and exhaustive annotation based on a monocular v…
