In particular, the goal is to identify postures which are characteristic for the dance performed, based on exploiting simultaneously the information of 24 body joints, acquired by a Kinect II sensor. The data sets described 6 folk dances, and their variations, originating from Greece.}, year = {2017}, booktitle = {ACM Int. Conf. Proc.
