The foundation of current analytic procedures is the examination of team footage. We provide a visual analytical framework that seamlessly combines abstract visualizations with team sports video recordings. It offers an exciting opportunity because several complicated, real-time occurrences are examined towards making strategic decisions. Visual object detection is a well-known and active research area. Any object, its speed, and its appearance have their level of detection difficulty in the face of numerous obstacles. Human Action Recognition (HAR) is required to carry out advanced operations in team games as there is an increase in demand for video analysis of sporting events. To strategically improve the team's performance, the team coach may, for instance, use an automatic monitoring system to monitor the player's movement and locations throughout a soccer match as well as the location of the football. This paper proposes a YOLOv7 model that uses the key-frame selection technique to analyze players' actions during a soccer game. In addition to detecting the football, player, and referee, the deep learning model can recognize six of the human actions in the soccer game. The experimental results show that using the key-frame selection technique for human action recognition, the total execution time can be reduced by approximately 68% to 70%. © 2023 IEEE.Deep LearningHuman Action RecognitionObject DetectionSport AnalyticsVisual AnalyticsA Key-frame Extraction for Object Detection and Human Action Recognition in Soccer Game Videos
