Abstract

In today’s digital age, the enhancement of the hardware technology has set new horizons on the computer science universe, asking new questions, proposing new solutions and re-opening some branches that have been temporary closed due to the overwhelming computational complexity. In this sense many algorithms have been proposed but they have never been successfully applied in practice up to now. In this work we will tackle the issues related to the detection and the localization of an interaction conducted by humans. We will begin analysing group interactions then moving to dyadic interactions and then elevate our considerations to the real world scenario. We will propose new challenging datasets, introducing new important tasks and suggesting some possible solutions.
