This book discovers the latest research and insights in sports performance analysis and computer science in sports with the 13th World Congress of Performance Analysis of Sport and 13th International Symposium on Computer Science in Sport joint conference proceedings. This comprehensive book features over 40 peer-reviewed scientific works, showcasing the latest developments in these areas. The book covers a wide range of topics, including data analytics in sports, performance tracking and monitoring, artificial intelligence and machine learning in sports, virtual and augmented reality in sports, sensor technology, sports biomechanics, and motor control. By reading this book, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how applied and research-based problems can, together, transform the world of sports, and how you can stay ahead of the curve in this rapidly evolving field. This means that whether you're a researcher, coach, athlete, or sports enthusiast, there is something for everyone in this book.

This covers the PACSS 2021 which approached interdisciplinary collaboration between theoretical computer science and practical performance analysis though an online workshop and conference. Readers find in this book the peer-reviewed and discussed evidences on how computer scientists and performance analysts can and have worked together to solve both applied and research-based problems in elite sport, using the methods of computer science. In this edition, we organize the content according to four major topics: machine learning, text mining, best practice and interdisciplinary collaboration. This is a refined material written by leading experts with up-to-date overview of research in the multidisciplinary field of computer science and elite sport performance analysis.
