Dear All,
Please find below the invitation to contribute to the 3rd Workshop and Competition on Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW) to be held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), 2022.
(1): The Competition is split into four Challenges, which are based on Aff-Wild2 database (or a static version of it), which is the first comprehensive benchmark annotated for different affective tasks (dimensional and categorical ones). The four Challenges are:
* Valence-Arousal Estimation Challenge
* Expression Classification Challenge
* Action Unit Detection Challenge
* Multi-Task-Learning Challenge
Aff-Wild2 is an audiovisual in-the-wild database of 564 videos of around 2.8M frames.
Participants are invited to participate in at least one of these Challenges.
There will be one winner per Challenge; the top-3 performing teams of each Challenge will have to contribute paper(s) describing their approach, methodology and results to our Workshop; the accepted papers will be part of the CVPR 2022 proceedings; all other teams are also encouraged to submit paper(s) describing their solutions and final results; the accepted papers will be part of the CVPR 2022 proceedings.
More information about the Competition can be found here<https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/cvpr-2022-3rd-abaw/>.

are solicited on the following topics:
i) "in-the-wild" facial expression or micro-expression analysis,
ii) "in-the-wild" facial action unit detection,
iii) "in-the-wild" valence-arousal estimation,
iv) "in-the-wild" physiological-based (e.g.,EEG, EDA) affect analysis,
v) domain adaptation for affect recognition in the previous 4 cases

Dear All,
I would appreciate it if you`d propagate the following opportunity.
The Institute of Psychology at the University of Pecs, Hungary, has started
a PhD program for international students. During the program, among other
possibilities, students can join research that aims to extend our knowledge
about the cognitive and neural background of face perception. We`re
particularly interested in how semantic knowledge about a person interacts
with affective processes. The students 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, heart rate, respiration
rate, EMG etc)
- EEG, fMRI
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, students from selected countries (mainly from Asia, Africa,
and South America) 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/
There is still three weeks until the application deadline for the
scholarship (15.01.2022.) The deadline for the program without Stipendium
Hungaricum scholarship is 31.01.2022.

The ISRE conference 2022 will include keynote addresses by Antonio Damasio, Barbara Fredrickson and Eran Halperin.
If you would like to contribute to the ISRE conference by presenting your research, we invite you to submit an abstract of max. 250 words by November 21, 2021. Submissions are welcome from scholars in all relevant disciplines for symposia (of up to four talks and a discussant, or 5 talks), individual talks, and posters. Symposia are encouraged to include more than one discipline to facilitate cross-disciplinary exchange. Upload your contribution at the ISRE 2022 conference website (http://isre22.org<http://isre22.org/>). Please consult the guidelines on the website before preparing your contribution as submissions are subject to blind review and there are limits on the number of submissions from a single individual.
If you would like to organize a pre-conference, we will be accepting proposals up untilNovember 30, 2021. Please email a 1 page PDF proposal to the pre-conference chairs, Gale Lucas (lucas(a)ict.usc.edu<mailto:lucas@ict.usc.edu>) and Rachael Jack (Rachael.Jack(a)glasgow.ac.uk<mailto:Rachael.Jack@glasgow.ac.uk>). Proposals should include names and affiliation of the organizers, a 400 word max description and provisional line-up of speakers and topics.
All abstracts will be subject to blind peer review by an international scientific committee; accepted abstracts will be published in the conference program.

Two postdoctoral positions are immediately available in Dr. Yu's Computational & Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at University of California San Diego. Initial appointment is for one year, renewable for up to 2-3 years. One position is primarily in computational modeling of human learning and decision making. A second position is primarily at the intersection of AI/ML and natural intelligence, with the goal of extracting representational and computational principles that support intelligent behavior. Other possible topics include computational modeling of perception, face processing, active learning/sensing, economic decision making, and social cognition.
Dr. Yu’s lab applies modern machine learning and statistical tools to extract information processing principles that enable intelligent behavior, in particular how humans and other intelligent systems perform inference, learning, decision-making, and social interactions under conditions of uncertainty and non-stationarity.
Applicants should be committed to applying rigorous mathematical tools to model cognitive functions and/or their neural underpinnings. Experience or interest in carrying out human behavioral experiments (either in person or on Amazon M-Turk) and/or collaborating with other neuroimaging/neurophysiology laboratories is desirable.
Dr. Yu's lab is situated within the Cognitive Science department, and also affiliated with the Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute, the Computer Science Department, the Neurosciences Graduate Program, and the Institute of Neural Computation. There are ample opportunities for collaborations with related groups across the UCSD main campus, the medical school, and the Salk Institute.
Interested candidates should send a research statement, along with a CV including publications, to Dr. Angela Yu (ajyu(a)ucsd.edu <mailto:ajyu@ucsd.edu>) with the subject “Postdoc Application”. The research statement should indicate which postdoc position the candidate is applying for, as well as how the candidate fits into Dr. Yu’s group. Two or more letters of references should be sent directly by the recommenders to ajyu(a)ucsd.edu <mailto:ajyu@ucsd.edu>. More information about Dr. Yu’s group can be found at https://www.cogsci.ucsd.edu/~ajyu <https://www.cogsci.ucsd.edu/~ajyu> .

Dear Colleagues,
We are conducting a meta-analysis on the body inversion effect, which reflects the difference in recognition between upright and inverted body stimuli. Our goal is to provide a summary of this effect, including the magnitude and moderating factors that influence the effect.We are seeking unpublished data from studies that meet the following criteria:
1. Neurotypical participants completed a visual body perception/recognition task that include upright and inverted conditions.
2. Body stimuli are human bodies (either computer generated or real images)
3. Outcome measures of perception/recognition were collected for both upright and inverted conditions. These may include behavioral accuracy (% correct, hit rate), electrophysiological data (e.g., N170 signal), or neuroimaging data.
If you have data that fit these criteria and you would like to share your data to be included in our synthesis, please contact Flora Oswald (feo5020(a)psu.edu<mailto:feo5020@psu.edu>) by October 18, 2021.
Thank you and best wishes,
