First Claim
1. A system which performs social interaction analysis for a plurality of participants, comprising:
- a processor configured to;
determine a similarity between a first spatially filtered output and each of a plurality of second spatially filtered outputs,determine a social interaction between the participants based on the similarity between the first spatially filtered output and each of the second spatially filtered outputs, anddisplay an output representative of the social interaction between the participants;
wherein the first spatially filtered output is received from a fixed microphone array, and the second spatially filtered outputs are received from a plurality of steerable microphone arrays each corresponding to a different participant.

Abstract
A system which performs social interaction analysis for a plurality of participants includes a processor. The processor is configured to determine a similarity between a first spatially filtered output and each of a plurality of second spatially filtered outputs. The processor is configured to determine the social interaction between the participants based on the similarities between the first spatially filtered output and each of the second spatially filtered outputs and display an output that is representative of the social interaction between the participants. The first spatially filtered output is received from a fixed microphone array, and the second spatially filtered outputs are received from a plurality of steerable microphone arrays each corresponding to a different participant.
