Abstract
Group behaviour characterisation is a topic not so well studied in the video surveillance community due to its difficulty and large variety of topics involved, but mainly because the lack of valid semantic concepts that relate collective activity to social context. In this work, our proposal is three-fold: a new definition of semantic concepts for social group analysis considering environment context, a novel video surveillance dataset that conveys a sociological perspective, and a descriptor that emphasises social interactions cues within a group. Promising results were revealed in order to deal with such complex problem.
