* Erratum to "ATTENTO: ATTENTion Observed for Automated Spectator Crowd Monitoring": The third formula should have only the absolute value, and no fraction. Download correct formula here.
** Erratum to "Head, shoulders and hips behaviors during turning": In the conclusions, it is stated that the occurrence of the maximum head yaw was also affected by the turn angle, leading to a linear increase from 35 degrees to 180 degrees. This range should be from 45 degrees to 180 degrees.
