Hi Anita, we used Psychomorph to do this by generating average neutral faces and average expression faces. For example, 100 neutral faces generated the neutral template, 100 smiling faces generated the smiling template. We were then able to modify the shape of individual faces by set incremental amounts by warping the shape information of the individual faces between our neutral and smiling parameters. Be careful, however, because you will come up against the problem of generating posed expressions which will not be true natural expressions - and here lies the real challenge. Good luck and feel free to contact make direct at a.h.mcintyre(a)stir.ac.uk Best wishes Alex ________________________________________ From: face-research-list-bounces(a)lists.stir.ac.uk [face-research-list-bounces(a)lists.stir.ac.uk] On Behalf Of face-research-list-request(a)lists.stir.ac.uk [face-research-list-request(a)lists.stir.ac.uk] Sent: 25 May 2014 12:00 To: face-research-list Mailing List Subject: Face-research-list Digest, Vol 40, Issue 4 Send Face-research-list mailing list submissions to face-research-list(a)lists.stir.ac.uk To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.stir.ac.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/face-research-list or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to face-research-list-request(a)lists.stir.ac.uk You can reach the person managing the list at face-research-list-owner(a)lists.stir.ac.uk When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Face-research-list digest..."

Hi Anita, I used FantaMorph for doing the same thing, and it worked really well. If you have no luck with psychomorph, you could try that. SqirlzMorph is a free version, but it doesn't give you quite so much control. Best of luck, Jodie

Online psychomorph
by Lisa Debruine 23 May '14

I'm developing an online version of Psychomorph. It's still in an early, slightly buggy, stage, but is much more intuitive than the desktop version. Email me if you want an access code, as access is by invite only for now. Cheers, Lisa (lisa.debruine(a)glasgow.ac.uk)

Info morphing software
by Montagna, Anita 23 May '14

23 May '14

Dear all of you, My name is Anita Montagna, PhD student at the Centre for the Developing Brain. I am looking for a software to morph pictures of faces in order to build a task of face expressions recognition. I had a look at Psychomorph but it seems that no instructions exist online. Could you help me? I need to create different levels of intensities of emotions and I have neutral and 100% intensities emotional faces Many thanks for your help, Best regards, Anita Montagna

Postdoctoral position in face perception
by Richard Russell 14 May '14

14 May '14

A postdoctoral position is available in the Gettysburg College Perception Laboratory (http://public.gettysburg.edu/~rrussell/laboratory.html) We perform basic research investigating human face perception, with a focus on how age, sex, health, and beauty are perceived from the face. We are also interested in understanding the use of cosmetics and other systems for artificially manipulating facial appearance. Methods include traditional experimental psychology approaches such as psychophysics, as well as anthropometry and image analysis. The postdoctoral associate will work closely with Dr. Richard Russell in the Psychology Department, and will collaborate with the Centre de Recherches et d'Investigations Épidermiques et Sensorielles (CE.R.I.E.S.) in Paris, France. Gettysburg College is a highly selective small liberal arts college, and its Department of Psychology has a strong empirical research tradition. Gettysburg is a picturesque and historic small town with a low cost of living that is 75 minutes from Baltimore and 90 minutes from Washington, DC. The successful candidate will have completed or be close to completing a PhD in Psychology, Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Biology, or a related discipline. Start date is negotiable. The position is for one year with the possibility of renewal for subsequent years. The annual salary is $40,000 and comes with a competitive package of benefits. Inquiries should be sent to Richard Russell rrussell(a)gettysburg.edu<mailto:rrussell@gettysburg.edu>. Richard Russell, PhD Assistant Professor of Psychology | Gettysburg College 300 North Washington Street | Gettysburg, PA 17325 | USA http://public.gettysburg.edu/~rrussell/
