Waggle dance by honeybee workers is a behavior for sharing information concerning feeding sources. Thus it is important to analyze the occurrence timing and distribution of waggle dance. This paper presents a scheme for automatically detection of workers undergoing waggle dance from the image sequence. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated by using actual images obtained by a video camera.
