PhD studentships at Stirling

by Peter Hancock

I have two funded studentships available for start in October (or earlier, if convenient), to work in the general area of human face perception and recognition. I'd be interested in working with someone on computational modelling for one of them, for which some facility in a programming language such as Matlab or Python would be helpful. One is funded by the Dylis Crabtree Scholarship, for which preference will be given to female applicants. Both are funded for UK/EU citizens only. The studentships will be based in the Face Lab at Stirling and join two postdocs working on the EPSRC-funded FACER2VM project (https://facer2vm.org/). Please get in touch with me directly in the first instance to discuss your interests, pjbh1(a)stir.ac.uk<mailto:pjbh1@stir.ac.uk>. I have no formal closing date but hope to make decisions by early May.

The OMG-Emotion Recognition Challenge

by Pablo Barros

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION The One-Minute Gradual-Emotion Recognition (OMG-Emotion) held in partnership with the WCCI/IJCNN 2018 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. https://www2.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/wtm/OMG-EmotionChallenge/ I. Aim and Scope Our One-Minute-Gradual Emotion Dataset (OMG-Emotion Dataset) is composed of 420 relatively long emotion videos with an average length of 1 minute, collected from a variety of Youtube channels. The videos were selected automatically based on specific search terms related to the term ``monologue''. Using monologue videos allowed for different emotional behaviors to be presented in one context and that changes gradually over time. Videos were separated into clips based on utterances, and each utterance was annotated by at least five independent subjects using the Amazon Mechanical Turk tool. To maintain the contextual information for each video, each annotator watched the clips of a video in sequence and had to annotate each video using an arousal/valence scale and a categorical emotion based on the universal emotions from Ekman. The participants are encouraged to use crossmodal information in their models, as the videos were labeled by humans without distinction of any modality. II. How to Participate To participate, please send us an email to barros(a)informatik.uni-hamburg.de with the title "OMG-Emotion Recognition Team Registration". This e-mail must contain the following information: Team Name Team Members Affiliation Each team can have a maximum of 5 participants. You will receive from us the access to the dataset and all the important information about how to train and evaluate your models. For the final submission, each team will have to send us a .csv file containing the final arousal/valence values for each of the utterances on the test dataset. We also request a link to a GitHub repository where your solution must be stored, and a link to an ArXiv paper with 4-6 pages describing your model and results. The best papers will be invited to submit their detailed research to a journal yet to be specified. Also, the best participating teams will hold an oral presentation about their solution during the WCCI/IJCNN 2018 conference. III. Important Dates Publishing of training and validation data with annotations: March 14, 2018. Publishing of the test data, and an opening of the online submission: April 11, 2018. Closing of the submission portal: April 13, 2018. Announcement of the winner through the submission portal: April 18, 2018. IV. Organization Pablo Barros, University of Hamburg, Germany Egor Lakomkin, University of Hamburg, Germany Henrique Siqueira, Hamburg University, Germany Alexander Sutherland, Hamburg University, Germany Stefan Wermter, Hamburg University, Germany --------------------------

Stirling/ESRC face database update

by Peter Hancock

Database update: Our face database at http://pics.stir.ac.uk/ESRC/index.htm has been updated. There are now 64 male and 71 female identities in most of the image types. I'm still updating a few, such as the stereo images and the conformed 3D models. The unedited 3D models are mostly of higher quality than previously. While there are still relatively few identities, the variety of imagery provided for each person is still the widest that I know of.

Database of faces across lifespan

by Marlene Behrmann

I am wondering whether anyone knows (or has) a database of faces with the same individual's face shown at multiple times across the lifespan - even just childhood and adulthood (and if there is a third point, this would be even better). Many thanks, Marlene Behrmann -- Marlene Behrmann, Ph.D George A. and Helen Dunham Cowan Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition and Department of Psychology Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA (412) 268-2790 behrmann(a)cmu.edu

If you wanted unfamiliar faces for use with an American audience, then there are many soccer players who have childhood and adult images available online.
