Xavier (Xavi) Alameda-Pineda, former Ph.D student in the PERCEPTION group (2010-2013) and his co-authors, Yan Yan (University of Trento, Italy), Elisa Ricci, Oswald Lanz (Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Italy), and Nicu Sebe (University of Trento, Italy), received the “Best Paper Award” at ACM MULTIMEDIA 2015 for the paper Analyzing Free-standing Conversational Groups: A Multimodal Approach. The conference took place at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, October 2015. There were four nominated papers and two papers were eventually awarded (one best paper and one best student paper). ACM MM is the premier international multimedia conference series held every year.
Congratulations Xavi!
