Machine Understanding of Facial Behaviour

Prof. Maja Pantic
Computing Department
Imperial College London, UK

A widely accepted prediction is that computing will move to the background, weaving itself into the fabric of our everyday living spaces and projecting the human user into the foreground. To realize this prediction, next-generation computing should develop anticipatory user interfaces that are human-centred, built for humans, and based on naturally occurring multimodal human behaviour such as affective and social signaling.

This talk discusses a number of components of human facial behavior like facial muscle actions, and a number of specific behaviors like affective states and social signals, how they can be automatically sensed and analysed by computer, what is the past research in the field conducted by the iBUG group at Imperial College London, and how far we are from enabling computers to understand human facial behavior.
