Graph-to-Grid (G2G): Continuous-Coordinate Feature Painting for Soccer Pass Surfaces

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Dense pass surfaces give, for every pitch cell, whether a pass played there would arrive, whether the carrier would choose it, and what the possession would then be worth. The networks that draw them read the state as a raster of per-cell counts, losing where inside a cell each player stands. LiDAR detectors, bird's-eye-view perception and graph weather models move entity features onto a grid, binning each entity to a cell or learning the transfer. We evaluate the interpolated form: each player's features are scattered bilinearly onto the grid at the player's measured coordinates, so the surfa
