+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+from inference import RFDETRSoccerNet

+# Initialize model (auto-detects CUDA/CPU)
+model = RFDETRSoccerNet()
+
+# Process video and get DataFrame
+df = model.process_video('soccer_match.mp4', confidence_threshold=0.5)

+| `area` | Bounding box area | float |
+
+## 📹 Video Processing Examples
+
+### Process Full Match
+```python
+# Process entire match
+df = model.process_video(
+    'full_match.mp4',
+    confidence_threshold=0.5,
+    save_results=True
+)
+
+print(f"Processed {len(df):,} detections")
+print(df['class_name'].value_counts())
+```
+
+### Fast Processing (Every 5th Frame)
+```python
+# Process every 5th frame for speed
+df = model.process_video(
+    'match.mp4',
+    frame_skip=5,  # 5x faster processing
+    confidence_threshold=0.6
+)
+```
+
+### Limited Frame Processing
+```python
+# Process first 10 minutes only
+df = model.process_video(
+    'match.mp4',
+    max_frames=18000,  # ~10 minutes at 30fps
+    confidence_threshold=0.5
+)
+```
+
+## 🖼️ Image Processing
+
+```python
+# Process single image
+df = model.process_image('soccer_frame.jpg', confidence_threshold=0.5)
+
+# Display results
+for _, detection in df.iterrows():
+    print(f"{detection['class_name']}: {detection['confidence']:.2f}")
+```
+
+## 📊 Advanced Analysis
+
+### Ball Possession Analysis
+```python
+# Analyze which players are near the ball
+possession_df = model.analyze_ball_possession(
+    df, 
+    distance_threshold=100  # pixels
+)
+
+print(f"Found {len(possession_df)} possession events")
+```
+
+### Filter and Analyze Results
+```python
+# Get high-confidence ball detections
+ball_df = df[(df['class_name'] == 'ball') & (df['confidence'] > 0.8)]
+
+# Calculate average players per frame
+avg_players = df[df['class_name'] == 'player'].groupby('frame').size().mean()
+
+# Find frames with goalkeepers
+goalkeeper_frames = df[df['class_name'] == 'goalkeeper']['frame'].unique()
+
+# Analyze referee positioning
+referee_df = df[df['class_name'] == 'referee']
+referee_activity = referee_df.groupby('frame').size()
+```
+
+### Export in Different Formats
+```python
+# Save as CSV (recommended for analysis)
+model.save_results(df, 'detections.csv', format='csv')
+
+# Save as JSON (with metadata)
+model.save_results(df, 'detections.json', format='json')
+
+# Save as Parquet (for big data)
+model.save_results(df, 'detections.parquet', format='parquet')

+
+## 📚 Integration Examples
+
+### With Pandas for Analysis
+```python
+import pandas as pd
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+
+# Process video
+df = model.process_video('match.mp4')
+
+# Create timeline analysis
+timeline = df.groupby('timestamp')['class_name'].value_counts().unstack(fill_value=0)
+timeline.plot(kind='line', figsize=(15, 8))
+plt.title('Object Detection Timeline')
+plt.show()
+```
+
+### With OpenCV for Visualization
+```python
+import cv2
+
+# Load video and predictions
+cap = cv2.VideoCapture('match.mp4')
+df = model.process_video('match.mp4')
+
+# Draw detections on video frames
+for frame_num in range(100):  # First 100 frames
+    ret, frame = cap.read()
+    if not ret:
+        break
+    
+    # Get detections for this frame
+    frame_detections = df[df['frame'] == frame_num]
+    
+    # Draw bounding boxes
+    for _, det in frame_detections.iterrows():
+        x1, y1, x2, y2 = int(det['x1']), int(det['y1']), int(det['x2']), int(det['y2'])
+        cv2.rectangle(frame, (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (0, 255, 0), 2)
+        cv2.putText(frame, f"{det['class_name']}: {det['confidence']:.2f}", 
+                   (x1, y1-10), cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 0.5, (0, 255, 0), 2)
+    
+    cv2.imshow('Detections', frame)
+    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
+        break
+
+cap.release()
+cv2.destroyAllWindows()
+```
+
+## 🔧 Technical Details
+
+### Model Architecture
+- **Base**: RF-DETR-Large (Real-time Detection Transformer)
+- **Backbone**: DINOv2 with ResNet features
+- **Input Resolution**: 1280x1280 pixels
+- **Output**: 4 object classes with bounding boxes
+
+### Training Details
+- **Dataset**: SoccerNet-Tracking 2023 (42,750 images)
+- **Hardware**: NVIDIA A100 40GB
+- **Training Time**: ~14 hours (4 epochs)
+- **Batch Size**: 4
+- **Learning Rate**: 1e-4
+- **Optimizer**: AdamW
+
+### Data Preprocessing
+- **Augmentation**: Random scaling, rotation, color jittering
+- **Normalization**: ImageNet statistics
+- **Resolution**: Multi-scale training (896-1280px)
+
+## 🚨 Limitations and Recommendations
+
+### Known Limitations
+- **Optimized for broadcast footage**: Best performance on professional soccer broadcasts
+- **Lighting sensitivity**: May have reduced accuracy in poor lighting conditions
+- **Camera angle dependency**: Trained primarily on standard broadcast angles
+- **Ball occlusion**: Small ball may be missed when heavily occluded
+
