JRDB-Social: A Multifaceted Robotic Dataset for Understanding of Context and Dynamics of Human Interactions Within Social Groups
Abstract
Understanding human social behaviour is crucial in computer vision and robotics. Micro-level observations like individual actions fall short necessitating a comprehensive approach that considers individual behaviour intra-group dynamics and social group levels for a thorough understanding. To address dataset limitations this paper introduces JRDB-Social an extension of JRDB. Designed to fill gaps in human understanding across diverse indoor and outdoor social contexts JRDB-Social provides annotations at three levels: individual attributes intra-group interactions and social group context. This dataset aims to enhance our grasp of human social dynamics for robotic applications. Utilizing the recent cutting-edge multi-modal large language models we evaluated our benchmark to explore their capacity to decipher social human behaviour.
