Does anyone know of a good emotion/expression recognition test that uses dynamic expressions and not static images?

Any pointers or better still, a test itself, would be highly appreciated. Garga Chatterjee Postdoctoral Fellow Massachusestts Institute of Technology

FW: request for stimuli which differ by one feature only

by Peter Hancock

-----Original Message----- From: Jodie Davies-Thompson [mailto:jdthompson@eyecarecentre.org] Sent: 02 July 2012 17:11 To: face-research-list-bounces Subject: RE: request for stimuli which differ by one feature only Dear Aisling, I'll have to check with my colleagues first, but we have some stimuli which you could use. (On a side note for all, we will soon be making a face stimuli database available which consists of 12 Caucasian males, each photographed professionally under 6 different angle (0, 10, 20 ,30, 40 ,50 degrees) each under 6 different expressions (neutral, happy, sad, angry, surprise, fear, disgust).) However, just to give you a heads up (and to potentially save you some time and effort!), we have just done that experiment and have just submitted it for publication. The study is a same/different matching task where one of the following changes occurs: - whole face - top half of the face - bottom half of the face - eyes only - mouth only - nose only As you would expect, we find that for both reaction times and percent correct, subjects find the images harder to discriminate exactly in the order above (ie. faster and more efficient at detecting changes to the eyes than to the mouth). I would be happy to send you our paper once it has been accepted (hopefully!). Let me know if you would still find the stimuli set helpful.

================================================================ "WHAT'S IN A FACE?" ECCV 2012 WORKSHOP 12 OCTOBER 2012 https://sites.google.com/site/wiaf2012/ ================================================================ The “What’s in a Face?” workshop aims to provide a forum for interdisciplinary exchange on the topic of human face. The interdisciplinary aspect will promote a lively exchange of ideas between researchers in computer vision, biometrics, cognitive psychology and forensics. This exchange will be facilitated by invited talks from leading researchers in these disciplines. Additionally, a panel session will be conducted to bring to the fore new perspectives and promote active collaboration between these disciplines. Computer vision sees the human face as a natural object and aims to perform the tasks of detection, tracking, coding and matching from images and videos. The task of facial recognition, for the purpose of establishing human identity, is the central focus in biometrics, where face images have also been used to deduce soft biometric attributes such as an individual’s age, gender and ethnicity. In forensics, local facial features such as moles, scars, tattoos and wrinkles have been used to validate identity in one-to-one matching cases involving photos. In speech forensics, face videos have been used in conjunction with audio streams to enhance the reliability of speech recognition through the use of audio-visual cues. Real-time face tracking, coupled with the use of soft biometric features, has allowed for new applications, such as continuous user monitoring and authentication in work environments. In cognitive vision and social psychology, videos and images of faces have been analyzed to infer an individual’s emotional state or to detect interpersonal deception. The neuropsychological processes pertaining to how humans recognize faces has also been actively studied over several decades. From a medical perspective, face images may also offer information about an individual’s health. More recently, facial images have been used to study familial relationships. The above observations lead to the tantalizing question: “What’s in a Face?” We invite high quality contributions on the following topics: - Novel 2D and 4D face recognition algorithms - Neuropsychology of face recognition in humans - Face understanding in social/cognitive psychology - Face behaviometrics - Age, gender and race prediction from faces - Emotion and deception detection from faces - Familial relationships from face images - Facial forensics based on scars, moles, tattoos - Facial micro-expressions - Detection of social intent from faces - Recognition of attentional focus ================================================================ IMPORTANT DATES July 3, 2012: Paper Submission Deadline July 30, 2012: Decision Notification August 5, 2012: Camera-ready Paper Due October 12, 2012: Full Day Workshop ================================================================ WEBSITE: https://sites.google.com/site/wiaf2012/ PAPER SUBMISSION SITE: https://sites.google.com/site/wiaf2012/paper-submission ================================================================ ORGANIZERS: Arun Ross, West Virginia University Antitza Dantcheva, West Virginia University Alice O'Toole, University of Texas at Dallas Maja Pantic, Imperial College London Stefanos Zafeiriou, Imperial College London ================================================================

request for images of sibling faces

by Graham Hole

Does anyone have images of (biologically-related) brothers, and photos of sisters, in the age-range of 18-25 at the time that the photos were taken? (Colour or black and white are both fine; preferably full face or near-full face.). We're doing an experiment on kin recognition and can't find enough siblings! Thanks in anticipation, Dr. Graham Hole, School of Psychology, University of Sussex.
