In this paper, we propose an integrated framework to explore the characteristics of a social network extracted frommultimodal dyadic interactions. First, speech detection is performed through an audio/visual fusion scheme based on stacked sequential learning. In the audio domain, speech is detected through clusterization of audio features. Clustersare modelled by means of an One-state Hidden Markov Model containing a diagonal covariance Gaussian Mixture Model. In the visual domain, speech detection is performed through differential-based feature extraction from the segmentedmouth region, and a dynamic programming matching procedure. Second, in order to model the dyadic interactions, we employed the Influence Model whose statesencode the previous integrated audio/visual data. Third, the social network is extracted based on the estimated influences. For our study, we used a set of videos belonging to New York Times{\textquoteright} Blogging Heads opinion blog. The resultsare reported both in terms of accuracy of the audio/visual data fusion and centrality measures used to characterize the social network.", optnote="OR;MILAB;HUPBA;MV", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=1427), last updated on Thu, 18 Jan 2018 12:02:53 +0100", doi="10.1145/1891903.1891967", opturl="http://delivery.acm.org/10.1145/1900000/1891967/a52-escalera.pdf?ip=158.109.9.24&acc=ACTIVE\%20SERVICE&CFID=105856509&CFTOKEN=16186426&__acm__=1338291304_bf0fcfab7182a4cb79822c4dccd3aa49" }
