Example: Calculate and Visualize wUPPCF

To calculate and visualize the weighted Ultimate Pitch Control Field (wUPPCF) [Iwashita, 2024] using the Space_Model, you can utilize the following code snippets.

Calculate wUPPCF

from spaceeval import Space_Model

event_path = './event'
home_tracking_path = './home_tracking'
away_tracking_path = './away_tracking'
out_path = './'

model = Space_Model(space_model='wUPPCF',
            event_data=event_path,
            tracking_home=home_tracking_path,
            tracking_away=away_tracking_path,
            out_path=out_path)

results = model.get_wuppcf()

Visualize wUPPCF

After calculating wUPPCF, you can visualize it. Here’s how to do it:

from spaceeval import Space_Model

model.vis_wuppcf(results)

Example Visualization

The Visualization results for the wUPPCF should look like this:
