Detection of groups interacting people is a very interesting and useful task in many modern technologies, with application fields spanning from video-surveillance to social robotics. In this paper we first furnish rigorous definition group considering the background sciences: allows us specify kinds group, so far neglected Computer Vision literature. On top taxonomy, present detailed state art on detection algorithms. Then, as main contribution, brand new method for automatic still images,...
While scalability and growth are key concerns for mainstream, venture-backed digital platforms, local location-oriented collaborative economies diverse in their approaches to evolving achieving social change. Their aims tactics differ when it comes broadening activities across contexts, spreading concept, or seeking make a bigger impact by promoting co-operation. This paper draws on three pairs of European, community-centred initiatives which reveal alternative views scale, growth, impact....
The topic of crowd modeling in computer vision usually assumes a single generic typology crowd, which is very simplistic. In this paper we adopt taxonomy that widely accepted sociology, focusing on particular category, the spectator formed by people "interested watching something specific they came to see" [6]. This can be found at stadiums, amphitheaters, cinema, etc. particular, propose novel dataset, Spectators Hockey (S-HOCK), deals with 4 hockey matches during an international...
The paper concerns the development of digitally-mediated technologies that value social cooperation as a common good rather than source revenue and accumulation. discusses activities shaped European participatory design project which aims to develop digital space promotes facilitates 'Commonfare', complementary approach welfare. provides concrete examples artifacts address key question about role co- in developing hybrid spaces nurture sharing autonomous cooperation: how can co-design...
The symposium on Gary Jaworkski's book Erving Goffman and the Cold War is based an "Author meets Critics" event held at European SSSI 2024 Conference in Pisa. After a brief introduction, Jaworski briefly suggests his motivation for writing book. Subsequently, three scholars, Greg Smith, Chiara Bassetti Stacey Hannem critically engage with text, before Jarworski offers response to critics.
Based on a multi-sited ethnography Western theatrical dance, the article focuses "problem of male dancer". Once discussed historical genealogy stigma and its effect men's participation in I consider three "antidotes". Two them – artistic-professional excellence, manifest structural inequalities, professional practice social discourse ; athleticism, involving discursive representational strategies consist emphasising masculinising aspects dancing-as-art/profession (virtuosity, creativity),...
Rising societal polarisations around health and climate crises have brought more attention to the close relations between social environmental challenges. These triggered an interest in participatory design (PD) field developing approaches that enhance connections diverse actors operating across sectors. However, capabilities needed for these not been sufficiently articulated PD research education. To fill this gap, we define 'reworlding' as operation of self-critique within engages with...
Taking the highly-institutionalized, socio-technical domain of airport security as its empirical basis, article focuses on interorganizational workplaces marked by public/private dialectics, and their impact changing work practices, identity processes, power-resistance relations. The material stems from ethnography that I conducted at an Italian international (April 2013–March 2015). Data include fieldnotes, interviews, video recordings. Having described institutional operational scenario,...
Whereas “professional vision” has been mostly analyzed in apprenticeship and other settings where knowledge is made explicit or reflected upon, I focus on how expertise tacitly plays out task-oriented interaction among practitioners. The paper considers orientation both to the coworker’s (recipient design) one’s own (expressive order) collaborative accomplishment of airport security work. show screeners recruit action from colleagues largely underspecified ways, based shared access...
Balconies, verandas and courtyards are part of our homes, shared with household or condominium members, but extending into public space for the visibility they allow compared to indoor They constitute porous (Benjamin, Lācis, 1978) borders home, configure as liminal spaces in «geography» private, parochial realms social life (Lofland, 1989) This geography has been reconfigured by/during lockdown following Covid-19 outbreak With restricted home (although many people were actually alone at...
Conversations among Italians often entail many-at-a-time rather than one-at-a-time speaking. This “talking together” is a deliberate aim of parties and relevant aspect their social life. It variant system for organizing ordinary talk. We describe how simultaneity organized, participants collaborate to maintain the orderliness interaction, how, do so, they listen each other continuously monitor talk its content form. Following Simmel, we see this as classic example sociability, play-form sociation.
Rural regions in the EU and all over world are often characterized by divers' conditions aspects, such as - geographical, landscape, digital infrastructures, socio-economic, demographic, cultural environmental well hierarchically grown decision structures dense social networks among their inhabitants. Digitalization improving quality of live rural industrialized is a transformative, yet complex process, that depends inherently on ability to face challenges modernizing industrial base,...
