The IEEE conference series on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition is the premier international forum for research in image and video-based face, gesture, and body movement recognition. Its broad scope includes: advances in fundamental computer vision, pattern recognition and computer graphics; machine learning techniques relevant to face, gesture, and body motion; new algorithms and applications. The conference presents research that advances the state-of-the-art in these and related areas, leading to new capabilities in various application domains. For FG 2015 we are soliciting papers in all areas of face and gesture recognition. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Face recognition, analysis and synthesis, - Facial expression analysis and synthesis, - Gesture recognition, analysis and synthesis, - Body motion analysis and synthesis, - Action recognition, - Psychological and behavioral analysis, - Technologies and applications. ** SUBMISSIONS ** Paper submissions may be up to eight pages in conference format. Papers longer than six pages will be subject to a page fee for the additional pages (two max). Submissions to FG 2015 should represent original research work that is not under review elsewhere.

object matching task
by Anna Bobak 19 Sep '14

19 Sep '14

Dear all, My name is Anna Bobak and I am a final year PhD student at Bournemouth University. I'm looking for an object matching control task with a minimum of 90 object pairs, half same and half different to run alongside face matching. I wonder if anyone could recommend a task or a database of objects big enough to make one from? Many thanks in advance for your help Best wishes, Anna Bobak Anna Bobak PhD Candidate in Psychology Bournemouth University Psychology Group Faculty of Science and Technology Talbot Campus, Fern Barrow Poole, BH12 5BB Email: abobak(a)bournemouth.ac.uk<mailto:abobak@bournemouth.ac.uk> Tel: 01202 965049
