Description
Summary:We present the hockey line extraction (HLE) algorithm, which examines ice hockey scoring summaries in an attempt to determine a team's lines. The players on a hockey team are divided into units called "lines" that appear together on the ice. The HLE algorithm uses single link clustering, support based measures and positional information to identify lines of players. The hockey lines software enables users to view relationships between players on a team based on time period and either support or confidence.
