Abstract

Social psychologists have long studied job interviews with the aim of knowing the relationships between behaviors, interview outcomes, and job performance. Several companies give great importance to psycho-test based on observation of the candidate is behavior more than the answers they even especially in sensitive positions like trade, marketing, investigation, etc. Our work will be a combination between two interesting topics of research in the last decades which are social psychology and affective computing. Some techniques were proposed until today to analyze automatically the candidate is non verbal behavior. This paper concentrates in body gestures which is an important non-verbal expression channel during affective communication that is not very studied in comparison to facial expressions. We proposed in this work a deep Spatio-temporal approach, it merges the temporal normalization method which is the energy binary motion information (EBMI) with deep learning based on stacked auto-encoder (SAE) for emotional body gesture recognition in job interview and the results prove the efficiency of our proposed approach.
