We introduce a new method to detect student group interactions in collaborative learning videos. We consider the following video activities: (i) human to human, (ii) human to others, and (iii) lack of any interaction. The system uses multidimensional AM-FM methods to detect student faces, hair, and then use the results to detect possible interactions. We use dynamic graphs to represent group interactions within each video. We tested our methods with 15 videos and achieved an 84% accuracy for students facing the camera and 76% for students facing both towards and away from the camera.
