Title: ChaLearn Looking at People: A Review of Events and Resources,
Abstract: This paper reviews the historic of ChaLearn Looking at People (LAP) events.
We started in 2011 (with the release of the first Kinect device) to run
challenges related to human action/activity and gesture recognition. Since then
we have regularly organized events in a series of competitions covering all
aspects of visual analysis of humans. So far we have organized more than 10
international challenges and events in this field. This paper reviews
associated events, and introduces the ChaLearn LAP platform where public
resources (including code, data and preprints of papers) related to the
organized events are available. We also provide a discussion on perspectives of
ChaLearn LAP activities.
