[Face-research-list] Children's facial expressions

Fri Apr 12 14:20:48 BST 2013

We're working on a database of children's faces (The Dartmouth Database of Children's Faces). It's not FACS coded, but  contains images of 40 male and 40 female models between the ages of 6 and 16. Models are photographed on a black background and are wearing black bibs and black hats to cover hair and ears. They are photographed from 5 different camera angles and pose 8 different facial expressions. Models were rated by independent raters and are ranked for the overall believability of their poses.

Hi folks - sorry to bombard the board, but just to note that the latest post is actually not a repeat of yesterday's - despite the topic heading - it is for postgraduate studentships, also available on this project.

best,
Mike

Dear all - Please find an advert for PhD studentships in face recognition.  I'd be grateful if you could bring this to the attention of any suitable candidates.
best,
Mike Burton

University of Aberdeen
School of Psychology
PhD studentships in Face Recognition (2)
Applications are invited for two PhD studentships starting in October 2013, to work with Professor Mike Burton.  Candidates should hold, or expect to achieve a First or Upper Second class degree in Psychology, or a Masters degree in a related subject.  The studentships are funded by the European Research Council, and funding will cover UK/EU fees and a stipend at research council rates.
To apply, please make a formal enquiry through the FindAPhD website: studentship1<http://www.findaphd.com/ProjectDetails.aspx?PJID=44784>, studentship2<http://www.findaphd.com/ProjectDetails.aspx?PJID=44785>. Informal enquiries prior to application may be made to Mike Burton:  m.burton at abdn.ac.uk<mailto:m.burton at abdn.ac.uk><mailto:m.burton at abdn.ac.uk> or 01224 273930.  The closing date is 17 May, 2013.
Further Information:  These studentships will form part of a large-scale project on face recognition. We are very good at recognising the faces we know, but very poor when recognising or matching unfamiliar faces. This project represents an attempt to understand the cognitive and perceptual processes underlying the differences between familiar and unfamiliar face recognition. In particular, we will be studying the variability in different photos of the same face. One of the studentships will employ computational and statistical analysis of face images, and programming experience will be essential. The second studentship will focus on real-world face recognition, including forensic and security problems.

Hi,
I am looking for a set of facial expressions of children for the 6 basic
emotions (happiness, sadness, fear, surprise, anger and disgust).

I am especially interested in images that are high-quality but also
received validation for their ecological validity (e.g. would be useful if
they are FACS coded and consistent with Ekman's specifications for facial
movements occuring in these emotions).

Any clues anybody?

Many thanks,

--
Chiara
