Abstract: The invention refers to a computer-implemented method of analyzing video data to identify affiliates of an object of interest, the method comprising: identifying a plurality of occurrences of the object of interest in the video data; determining a set of potential affiliates for the object of interest from a plurality of other objects in the video data based on a criterion of closeness between the object of interest at each occurrence and each other object; analyzing the set of potential affiliates to obtain a similarity score for each potential affiliate at each occurrence from the plurality of occurrences, each similarity score indicating a degree of similarity with respect to a selected reference potential affiliate in the set of potential affiliates; and identifying a potential affiliate as an affiliate of the object of interest based on the similarity scores.
