Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the detection of interaction in videos between two people, namely, a caregiver and an infant. We are interested in a particular type of human interaction known as touch, as touch is a key social and emotional signal used by caregivers when interacting with their children. We propose an automatic touch event recognition method to determine the potential time interval when the caregiver touches the infant. In addition to label the touch events, we also classify them into six touch types based on which body part of infant has been touched. CNN based human pose estimation and person segmentation are used to analyze the spatial relationship between the caregivers hands and the infants. We demonstrate promising results for touch detection and show great potential of reducing human effort in manually generating precise touch annotations.
