Call For Papers

We cordially invite you to participate in our ICCV’2021 Understanding Social Behavior in Dyadic and Small Group Interactions Challenge - http://chalearnlap.cvc.uab.es/challenge/45/description/

Description: to advance and motivate the research on visual human behavior analysis in dyadic and small group interactions, this challenge will use a large scale, multimodal, and multiview (UDIVA) dataset recently collected by our group, which provides many related challenges. It will address two different problems, divided in two competition tracks:
Automatic self-reported personality recognition of single individuals (i.e., a target person) during a dyadic interaction, from two individual views.
Behavior forecasting: the focus of this track will be to estimate future (up to N frames) 2D facial landmarks, hand, and upper body pose of a target individual in a dyadic interaction.

In both tasks, multiview and multimodal information (audio-visual, transcriptions, context and medatada) are expected to be exploited to solve the problem.

Important Dates:
Dataset access request period open: 18th May, 2021
Start of the Challenge (development phase): June 1st, 2021
Start of test phase: September 1st, 2021
End of the Challenge: September 17th, 2021
Release of final results: September 30th, 2021

Top winning solutions will be invited to give a talk to present their work at the associated ICCV 2021 ChaLearn workshop (http://chalearnlap.cvc.uab.es/workshop/44/description/). In addition to this, challenge participants, as well as the research community in the field and from related disciplines (e.g. affective computing, social signal processing and human-computer interaction), are invited to submit a paper to be published in Proceedings of Machine Learning Research (PMLR). In line with these, we accept papers addressing the issues related to, but not limited to, these topics:
Challenge related papers, describing their methods and results;
Detection, understanding, modeling and synthesis of individual and interpersonal social signals and dynamics;
Verbal/nonverbal communication analysis in dyadic and small groups;
Contextual analysis in dyadic and small groups;
Datasets, annotation protocols, and bias discovering/mitigation in dyadic and small groups;
Interpretability/explainability in dyadic and small groups;
Important Dates:
Paper submission deadline (PMLR): October 31st, 2021
Author notification: November 30th, 2021
Camera-ready: December 20th, 2021
