The FOX research group (http://cristal.univ-lille1.fr/FOX
<http://cristal.univ-lille1.fr/FOX>) of CRSItAL laboratory
(http://www.cristal.univ-lille.fr <http://www.cristal.univ-lille.fr/>) (UMR CNRS
9189), France, is looking for a promising candidate to work on the field of Human Behavior
Analysis from video under unconstrained settings.
The recognition and prediction of people behaviour from videos are major concerns in the
field of computer vision. A specific class of behavior analysis concerning facial
expression recognition attracts lot of attention from researchers and industry in various
fields.
State of the art solutions work fine in controlled environments were expressions are
exaggerated and the head of the subject stay still, but as soon as the subject moves
freely and expressions are natural, the performances of existing systems drop in an
important manner. This observation is confirmed by performance evaluation conducted on new
datasets (such as RECOLA, GEMEP) where the acquisitions conditions are similar to natural
interaction settings.
We look for a PHD candidate in order to study and propose algorithms that analyze human
behavior from video in unconstrained environments.

== Required expertise
Strong preference will be given to candidates with experience in Computer Vision and
Pattern Recognition and a good knowledge of written and oral English. Background in motion
analysis field would be appreciated.
Applicants are expected to have a strong background in Computer Science. Strong
programming skills (C or C++) are a plus. French language skills are not required, English
is mandatory.
The thesis shall start October 1st in Lille.
Applications must be sent by email to Prof. Ch. Djeraba (chabane.djeraba(a)univ-lille1.fr
<mailto:chabane.djeraba@univ-lille1.fr>) and IM Bilasco
