Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has pushed the need for virtual diagnosis and monitoring health protocols such as regulating social distancing, surveillance of individuals wearing masks in-crowd, gauging body temperature and other physiological measurements from distance. Consequently, researchers from computer vision, as well as from the medical science community have given significant attention to goals ranging from patient analysis and monitoring to diagnostics (e.g., for dementia, depression, healthcare, physiological measurement, rare neurologic diseases). Moreover, healthcare represents an area of broad economic, social, and scientific impact. The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in this area of computer vision and medical science and to address a wide range of theoretical and practical issues related to real-life healthcare systems. We especially invite papers resulting from collaboration between technical and clinical experts. Hence, this FG Special Session represents a venue for fostering these collaborations, providing a unique and welcoming environment for transdisciplinary research that is sometimes labelled as being “too clinical” by technical journals or “too technical” by clinical journals. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:  Health monitoring based on face analysis,  Health monitoring based on gesture analysis,  Health monitoring based corporeal-based visual features,  Depression analysis based on visual features,  Face analytics for human behaviour understanding,  Anxiety diagnosis based on face and gesture,  Physiological measurement employing face analytics,  Databases on health monitoring, e.g., depression analysis,  Augmentative and alternative communication,  Human-robot interaction,  Home healthcare,  Technology for cognition,  Automatic emotional hearing and understanding,  Visual attention and visual saliency,  Assistive living,  Privacy-preserving systems,  Quality of life technologies,  Mobile and wearable systems,  Applications for the visually impaired,  Sign language recognition and applications for hearing impaired,  Applications for the ageing society,  Personalized monitoring,  Egocentric and first-person vision,  Assessing physical and/or cognitive ability based on face and body movement analysis,  Orofacial assessment in clinical populations,  Hand function assessment in clinical populations,  Assessment of gait and/or balance,  Assistive technology,  Applications to improve health and wellbeing of children and elderly.

Glasgow Face Matching Test 2 (GFMT2)

by David White

GLASGOW FACE MATCHING TEST 2 (GFMT2) A new psychometric test of face matching ability has been developed by UNSW Sydney and University of York and is freely available for scientific use. White, D., Guilbert, D., Varela, V.P.L. Renkins, R., & Burton, A. M. (2021). GFMT2: A psychometric measure of face matching ability. Behavior Research Methods. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13428-021-01638-x GFMT2 is a new expanded version of the original Glasgow Face Matching Test. Test forms include: GFMT2-S: A short 80 item test with test-retest reliability over a week r = 0.774. There are two equally difficult 40-item forms for use in experimental intervention studies. GFMT-Low: Specifically designed to target lower than average performers, suited for assessing acquired or developmental prosopagnosia. GFMT2-High: Specifically designed to target higher than average performers, suited for assessing super-recognisers and certain professional groups. Short tests do not contain repeating identities, nor items from the original GFMT. Image pairs now include variation in head angle, pose, expression and subject-to-camera distance, making the new test more difficult and more representative of challenges in everyday face identification tasks. The publication is available here: https://rdcu.be/cm1YR Executable versions of the test are available for PC and MAC via: www.gfmt2.org

PhD in face perception

by Ferenc Kocsor

Dear All, I would appreciate it if you`d propagate the following opportunity. The Institute of Psychology at the University of Pecs, Hungary, is planning to start a PhD program for international students. During the program, among other possibilities, students can join a research that aims at extending our knowledge about the cognitive background of face perception. We`re particularly interested in how semantic knowledge about a person interacts with affective processes. The student will have access to the following equipment in our lab: - device for accurate reaction time measurement (cedrus) - eye-tracker (Toobi XT300) - physiological measurements (BIOPAC modules: EDA, hearth rate, respiration rate, EMG etc) - EEG Please note that there is a tuition fee (3500 euros per semester in the first and second year, and 2500 euros per semester in the third and fourth year). However, from the second year on, students from selected countries may apply for a scholarship by the Stipendium Hungaricum which covers both tuition fee and costs of living. The list of eligible countries can be found here: https://stipendiumhungaricum.hu/partners/ We are still waiting for the official approval of the PhD program from the university administration, hence application will be possible only from July. Until then, informal enquiries can be sent to kocsor.ferenc(a)pte.hu. Students with a background in psychology, biology, or other related fields, are welcome to apply. best regards *Ferenc Kocsor, PhD* Institute of Psychology Faculty of Humanites University of Pécs psychology.pte.hu <https://psychology.pte.hu/ferenc-kocsor-phd> evolutionpsychology.com <https://psychology.pte.hu/ferenc-kocsor-phd>
