26-27 AVAILABLE: Dance style classification

Classifying dance style is an interesting problem and some work has been done using just video.  I’m curious to know if we could use clothing classification and music recognition to help…
The concept for this project is drawn from the paper “Dance Style Classification using Laban-Inspired and Frequency-Domain Motion Features” which was presented in VISAPP 2026 (See Dance Style Classification using Laban-Inspired and Frequency-Domain Motion Features).  It seems that there are some datasets available in this area (e.g. AIST Dance Video Database (AIST Dance DB)).
