Abstract
To understand an interaction among persons is one of the most important tasks in artificial intelligence. In this paper, we propose a method for estimating a cooperation level in pair work. The task is a cooperation work that take place in front of a whiteboard by two persons. The goal of our study is to provide the cooperation level that is estimated by features extracted from images for teachers. The result of this study is useful for education support systems and problem based learning. We extract the standing location, operation ratio and head direction of each person from an overhead camera. We apply the features to two machine learning approaches: AdaBooost and multiple linear regression. We obtained 77.5% as the accuracy by the AdaBoost and 0.649 as the adjusted R 2 by the regression.
