With the rapid development in artificial intelligence, social computing has evolved beyond social informatics toward the birth of social intelligence systems. This paper, therefore, takes initiatives to propose a social behaviour…

Group activity detection in multi-person scenes is challenging due to complex human interactions, occlusions, and variations in appearance over time. This work presents a computer vision based framework for group activity recognition and…
