International workshop on Audio-Visual Affective Prosody in social interaction & second language learning (AVAP 2015) Bordeaux, 5 and 6 March 2015

Official Web site : avap2015.labri.fr



Call for communication
 

 Description:
 
The main topic of this workshop is social affective meaning (including emotions, mood, feeling and intentions or attitudes) conveyed by audio as well as visual control. For the past 20 years, expressiveness of various affective meanings in many languages / cultures has become a popular topic of research in various scientific fields: affective computing, cultural psychology, cognitive psychology, linguistic, phonetics, speech processing, visual processing and artificial intelligence. However, these characteristics are not sufficiently analyzed for application to human-human and human-machine interaction. The aim of this workshop is to gather specialists of the above-mentioned fields for a two day meeting in Bordeaux.
