Call for Proposals to host the Fifth International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction (ACII 2013)

15 March 2012 - 15 March 2012  

The HUMAINE association is pleased to call for proposals to host the Fifth International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction (ACII 2013). ACII is a central event for researchers exploring the role of emotion and other affective phenomena in human-computer and human-robot interaction, with relations to graphics, AI, robotics, vision, speech, synthetic characters, games, educational software, etc.

Deadline:  15 March 2012

Special Session on BELIEF FUNCTIONS FOR HUMAN BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

09 May 2012 - 11 May 2012   Compiègne, France

In this session we would like to invite scientists working in areas related to affective computing, ambient computing, computer vision and machine learning to share their expertise and achievements in the emerging field of automatic analysis of human behaviour using belief functions.

Deadline:  01 December 2011

ES³ 2012 - Corpora for Research on EMOTION SENTIMENT & SOCIAL SIGNALS

26 May 2012 - 26 May 2012   Istanbul, Turkey

The fourth instalment of the workshop series on Corpora for Research on Emotion held at LREC aims at further cross-fertilisation between the highly related communities of Emotion, Sentiment & Social Signals. Corpora for these fields and original contributions on evaluation are seeked.

Special session on "Computational Intelligence and Affective Computing" at the 2012 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI)

10 June 2012 - 15 June 2012   Brisbane, Australia

Computational intelligence is a set of Nature-inspired computational methodologies and approaches to address complex real world problems to which traditional methodologies and approaches (first principles, probabilistic, black-box, etc.) are ineffective or infeasible. It includes neural networks, fuzzy logic systems, evolutionary computation, swarm intelligence, chaos theory, etc. IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI) is the largest and also the most important bi-annual conference on computational intelligence. WCCI 2010 in Barcelona attracted 2525 submissions and over 1800 participants. The Computational Intelligence and Affective Computing special session aims at bringing together researchers from both areas to discuss how computational intelligence algorithm can be used to solve challenging affective computing problems, and how affects (emotions) can inspire new computational intelligence algorithms.

Deadline:  19 December 2011

Affective Human-Machine Interaction

26 June 2012 - 29 June 2012   JeJu Island, Korea

Much like communications between humans, emotion is critical for the natural and harmonious Human-Robot interactions (HRI), especially for service robots and assistive robots. The special Session of Affective Human-Machine Interaction provides a platform for researchers from the interdisciplinary area that encompasses artificial intelligence, robot, human-computer interaction, psychology, computer science, engineering, neuroscience and linguistics to exchange ideas, frameworks, methods, and tools relating to Affective Human-Robot Interaction.

Deadline:  31 January 2012

INTERSPEECH 2012 Speaker Trait Challenge

09 September 2012 - 13 September 2012   Portland, Oregon

The INTERSPEECH 2012 Speaker Trait Challenge shall help bridging the gap between excellent research on paralinguistic information in spoken language and low compatibility of results. Three Sub-Challenges are addressed: In the Personality Sub-Challenge, the personality of a speaker has to be determined based on acoustics potentially including linguistics above or below average for the OCEAN five personality dimensions. In the Likability Sub-Challenge, the likability of a speaker's voice has to be determined by a suited learning algorithm and acoustic features. While the annotation provides likability in multiple levels, only two classes have to be recognised accordingly: likability above or below average. In the Pathology Sub-Challenge, the intelligibility of a speaker has to be determined by a suited classification algorithm and acoustic features. The results of the Challenge will be presented at Interspeech 2012 in Portland, Oregon. Prizes will be awarded to the Sub-Challenge winners.

Deadline:  01 April 2012

2nd International Audio/Visual Emotion Challenge and Workshop (AVEC 2012)

22 October 2012 - 26 October 2012   Santa Monica, California

The Audio/Visual Emotion Challenge and Workshop (AVEC 2012) will be the second competition event aimed at comparison of multimedia processing and machine learning methods for automatic audio, visual and audiovisual emotion analysis, with all participants competing under strictly the same conditions.

Deadline:  21 July 2012
