Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method for enhancing visual representation to individuals participating in a computer-implemented conversation, comprising: analyzing, by a processor, video data for a plurality of individuals participating in one or more conversations; generating, by a processor, based on the video data, a plurality of possible conversational configurations of the individuals, each possible conversational configuration comprising one or more pair-wise probabilities of at least two of the individuals; assigning, by a processor, a probability weight to each of the pair-wise probabilities comprising a likelihood that the individuals of that pair-wise probability are participating in one of the conversations; determining, by a processor, a probability of each possible conversational configuration by combining the probability weights for the pair-wise probabilities of that possible conversational configuration; selecting, by a processor, one of the possible conversational configurations with the highest probability as a most probable configuration; determining, by a processor, the individuals participating in the conversations based on the pair-wise probabilities of the most probable configuration; generating, by a processor, an enhanced visual representation for each individual participating in the determined conversations, and displaying, by a display, the enhanced visual representation of each individual participating in the determined conversations to the plurality of individuals within a graphical user interface on the display.
