Dear List Members: I am wondering how to validate general facial expressions. I see a single method: Estimate the amplitude of action units *AND* get a FACS expert who validates the data (and does not mind emotions at all) Do you have any other idea? - Are you aware of any kind of database where people respond naturally to images or sounds and they also talk about their mixed feelings? - Is there any kind of image database on facial expressions with regard to a standard emotional database, like IAPS? - Is there any general measure, such as co-measured signals (like video, fMRI, PET, EEG and gaze estimation) together with the data that was used to evoke emotions in the study and can be used for validation? I am very much looking forward to your responses. Best wishes, Andras _________________________ Andras Lorincz ECCAI Fellow http://nipg.inf.elte.hu http://lifeboat.com/ex/bios.andras.lorincz Department of Software Technology and Methodology Eotvos Lorand University Budapest, Hungary

(Ei/IEEE Xplore) CISP'11-BMEI'11 Extended Deadline 3 June, Shanghai, China

by Bing Li

Dear Colleague, We cordially invite you to submit a paper to the upcoming 4th International Congress on Image and Signal Processing (CISP 2011) and the 4th International Conference on BioMedical Engineering and Informatics (BMEI 2011), to be jointly held from 15-17 October 2011, in Shanghai, China. Due to numerous requests, the submission deadline is extended to 3 June 2011. Shanghai is the largest city in China, with famous historical and cultural heritage. Attractions include Yuyuan Garden ("Happy Garden" built in Ming Dynasty), Shanghai Museum with 120,000 pieces of rare relics, Shanghai World Financial Center, Jade Buddha Temple (Song Dynasty), Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Zhujiajiao Water Town, and Expo 2010 site. All papers in conference proceedings will be indexed by both EI Compendex and ISTP, as well as included in the IEEE Xplore (IEEE Conference Record Number for CISP'11: 18205; IEEE Conference Record Number for BMEI'11: 18206. CISP-BMEI 2008-2010 papers have already been indexed in EI Compendex). Substantially extended versions of best papers will be considered for publication in a CISP'11-BMEI'11 special issue of the Computers and Electrical Engineering journal (SCI-indexed). CISP-BMEI is a premier international forum for scientists and researchers to present the state of the art of multimedia, signal processing, biomedical engineering and informatics. The previous CISP-BMEI each attracted over 3000 submissions from all over the world, with acceptance rate around 50%. The registration fee of US$400 includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all technical sessions. CISP'11-BMEI'11 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. To promote international participation of researchers from outside the country/region where the conference is held (i.e., China’s mainland), researchers outside of China’s mainland are encouraged to propose invited sessions. The first author of each paper in an invited session must not be affiliated with an organization in China’s mainland. All papers in the invited sessions can be marked as "Invited Paper". The organizer(s) for each invited session with at least 6 registered papers will (jointly) enjoy an honorarium of US*D 400. Invited session organizers will solicit submissions, conduct reviews and recommend accept/reject decisions on the submitted papers. Invited session organizers will be able to set their own submission and review schedules, as long as a set of recommended papers is determined by 31 May 2011. Each invited session proposal should include: (1) the name, bio, and contact information of each organizer of the invited session; (2) the title and a short synopsis of the invited session. Please send your proposal to CISP-BMEI(a)dhu.edu.cn For more information, visit the conference web page: http://cisp-bmei.dhu.edu.cn If you have any questions after visiting the conference web page, please email the secretariat at CISP-BMEI(a)dhu.edu.cn Join us at this major event in exciting Shanghai !!!

introduction

by Gary Cottrell

Hi - I thought I would introduce myself to the list. I'm Gary Cottrell, and I've been building computational models (or my students have!) of visual processing for slightly over 20 years. My lab is interested in how the brain processes visual information from a number of perspectives - how do we recognize facial expressions, how do we recognize faces & objects, how do we decide where to look, how to we integrate information over fixations, what is the source of hemispheric asymmetries, what is the cause of search asymmetries? We've also investigated how hierarchical visual representations can be formed through unsupervised learning. I have a bad habit of publishing things in the cog sci conference and then not sending that to a journal, so some of my work is obscure, but it is all on my web page. I'm also a member of the Perceptual Expertise Network, where I've mostly been interested in computational explanations of what I call the Visual Expertise Mystery, which is why would an area (the FFA) that presumably starts out as a face area become recruited for other areas of expertise? While a fair number of the readers of this list probably believe that that question starts from a false presupposition, we have a good computational answer, if you allow it the question! ;-) I hope to see many of you at VSS! cheers, gary Gary Cottrell 858-534-6640 FAX: 858-534-7029 Computer Science and Engineering 0404 IF USING FED EX INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING LINE: CSE Building, Room 4130 University of California San Diego - 9500 Gilman Drive # 0404 La Jolla, Ca. 92093-0404 "A grapefruit is a lemon that saw an opportunity and took advantage of it." - note written on a door in amsterdam on Lybaangracht strasse.
