In human behaviour analysis, the visual focus of attention (VFOA) of a person is a very important cue. VFOA detection is difficult, though, especially in a unconstrained and crowded environment, typical of video surveillance scenarios. In this paper, we estimate the VFOA by defining the Subjective View Frustum, which approximates the visual field of a person in a three-dimensional representation of the scene. This opens up to several intriguing behavioural investigations. In particular, we propose the Inter-Relation Pattern Matrix, which suggests possible social interactions between the people present in a scene. Theoretical justifications and experimental results substantiate the validity and the goodness of the analysis performed.
