We represent these interactions by a graph of influence of the musicians, which displays the relations is following and is not following with weighted directed arcs. The goal of the machine learning problem investigated is to assign weights to these arcs in an optimal way. Since only a subset of the available training examples are labeled, a semisupervised support vector machine is used, which is based on a linear kernel to limit its model complexity. Specific potential applications within the field of human-computer interaction are also discussed, such as e-learning, networked music performance, and social active listening. date: 2016 date_type: published publication: ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS) volume: 6 number: 1 publisher: ACM refereed: TRUE issn: 2160-6455 official_url: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2896319&CFID=586508679&CFTOKEN=97227959 citation: Dardard, Floriane and Gnecco, Giorgio and Glowinski, Donald Automatic Classification of Leading Interactions in a String Quartet.
