12th IEEE Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition
(FG 2017)
May 30 – June 3, 2017
Washington DC, US
We solicit submissions for the special session on “Analysis of Group Interactions”, held as part of the FG2017 main conference. We intend to accept five papers covering the broad scope of the topic.
It is in our interaction with others that we give meaning to our individual as well as collective behavior. Dyadic (two-person) and small group interactions punctuate our everyday life, when we participate in work meetings, when we encounter acquaintances on the street, when we move in emergent groups, and so on. Group interaction amounts to far more than the collection of individual behaviors. Coordination in both time and space is often meaningful for the specific interaction setting or the outcome of the interaction.
In the past decades, we witnessed impressive advances in the visual analysis of face and body. We learned how to robustly and accurately track facial expressions and body movements, and thus started to interpret individual behavior. With the solid base from this research, it's time to take the next step and move beyond the analysis of the individual. In the special session “Analysis of Group Interactions” at FG2017, we focus on challenges in three areas.
Topics
- Detecting and recognizing interactions- Computer vision
- Novel cues for interaction analysis
- Interaction forecasting
- Social role recognition
- Models for turn-taking
- Affect and personality in group interaction
- Recognition of affect from interactions
- Influence of personality on interaction
- Group behavior and dynamics
- Abnormal group behavior recognition
- Assembly and disassembly of groups
- Group behavior analysis at different ages
- Group outcome prediction
Submission
We solicit high-quality theoretical, empirical and application research papers on the topics of the special session, ideally with a multi-disciplinary perspective. Papers, according to the FG guidelines (http://www.fg2017.org/index.php/authors/), can be submitted through https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/FG2017/, and then select the “Group Interactions” track. After peer review, accepted papers will be published in the main conference proceedings on IEEE Xplore.
Deadlines:
- Paper submission: December 15, 2016
- Notification of acceptance: January 23, 2017
- Camera-ready paper: February 17, 2017
