PhD opportunities at the University of Plymouth

by Chris Longmore

Dear all, The School of Psychology at the University of Plymouth has three fully funded full time PhD studentships (3 years) and two part-time studentships (5 years with teaching duties). Full details of all projects are available here: https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/schools/psychology/phd-studentships For the interest of this list there are two potential projects on offer involving the development of face processing in childhood and face processing in social anxiety. Details of these projects are available via the link above but note that the description is quite embryonic to allow for candidates to discuss their own direction with the supervisors. If you know of any MSc students that are looking to do a PhD in face processing please do forward on these details to them, or ask them to contact me directly (chris.longmore(a)plymouth.ac.uk<mailto:chris.longmore@plymouth.ac.uk>). Queries about funding for non-UK applicants for the full time positions should be sent to Prof. Chris Mitchell (christopher.mitchell(a)plymouth.ac.uk<mailto:christopher.mitchell@plymouth.ac.uk>), PG tutor or Dr Jeremy Goslin (jeremy.goslin(a)plymouth.ac.uk<mailto:jeremy.goslin@plymouth.ac.uk>) for the part time positions.

PhD opportunity in Lille (North of France) : Expression Recognition "in the wild"

by Ioan Marius BILASCO

The FOX research group (http://cristal.univ-lille1.fr/FOX <http://cristal.univ-lille1.fr/FOX>) of CRSItAL laboratory (http://www.cristal.univ-lille.fr <http://www.cristal.univ-lille.fr/>) (UMR CNRS 9189), France, is looking for a promising candidate to work on the field of Human Behavior Analysis from video under unconstrained settings. The recognition and prediction of people behaviour from videos are major concerns in the field of computer vision. A specific class of behavior analysis concerning facial expression recognition attracts lot of attention from researchers and industry in various fields. State of the art solutions work fine in controlled environments were expressions are exaggerated and the head of the subject stay still, but as soon as the subject moves freely and expressions are natural, the performances of existing systems drop in an important manner. This observation is confirmed by performance evaluation conducted on new datasets (such as RECOLA, GEMEP) where the acquisitions conditions are similar to natural interaction settings. We look for a PHD candidate in order to study and propose algorithms that analyze human behavior from video in unconstrained environments. http://sujets-these.lille.inria.fr/details.html?id=a1382de1c76647509ef9e25c… <http://sujets-these.lille.inria.fr/details.html?id=a1382de1c76647509ef9e25c…> == Required expertise Strong preference will be given to candidates with experience in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition and a good knowledge of written and oral English. Background in motion analysis field would be appreciated. Applicants are expected to have a strong background in Computer Science. Strong programming skills (C or C++) are a plus. French language skills are not required, English is mandatory. The thesis shall start October 1st in Lille. Applications must be sent by email to Prof. Ch. Djeraba (chabane.djeraba(a)univ-lille1.fr <mailto:chabane.djeraba@univ-lille1.fr>) and IM Bilasco (marius.bilasco(a)univ-lille1.fr <mailto:marius.bilasco@univ-lille1.fr> <mailto:marius.bilasco@univ-lille1.fr <mailto:marius.bilasco@univ-lille1.fr>>), Subject: [Phd Position]. They must contain a statement of interest, a CV, a list of publications, if any, and the names of two references. Please contact the Prof. Ch.

[CFP] Fifth Emotion Recognition in the Wild challenge 2017

by abhinav dhall

Apologies for cross-postings Call for challenge participation Fifth Emotion Recognition in the Wild (EmotiW) Challenge 2017 https://sites.google.com/site/emotiwchallenge @ ACM International Conference on Multimodal Interaction 2017, Glasgow --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Fifth Emotion Recognition in the Wild 2017 Challenge consists of multimodal classification challenges, which mimics real-world conditions. Traditionally, emotion recognition has been performed on laboratory controlled data. While undoubtedly worthwhile at the time, such lab controlled data poorly represents the environment and conditions faced in real-world situations. With the increase in the number of video clips online, it is worthwhile to explore the performance of emotion recognition methods that work ‘in the wild’. There are two sub-challenges: audio-video based emotion recognition in videos and group-level emotion recognition in the images (new). Timeline: Challenge Website Up: early March 2017 Train and validate data available: April 2017 Test data available: 8 July 2017 Last date for uploading the results: 23 July 2017 Paper submission deadline: 10 August 2017 Notification: 1 September 2017 Camera-ready papers: 21 September 2017 Organisers Abhinav Dhall, Roland Goecke, Jyoti Joshi, Jesse Hoey and Tom Gedeon Contact emotiw2014(a)gmail.com -- Abhinav Dhall, PhD (ANU) Assistant Professor, Indian Institute of Technology Ropar
