3-3-38 (2015-09-11) AVSP and 1st Joint Conference on Facial Analysis, Animation and Audio-Visual Speech Processing, Vienna, Austria
Call For Papers
AVSP 2015 - FAA 2015
This year the AVSP 2015 conference will be held in conjunction with the Facial Analysis and Animation (FAA) conference, i.e.,
AVSP + FAA conferences = FAAVSP ?The 1st Joint Conference on Facial Analysis, Animation and Audio-Visual Speech Processing?
The first day will be devoted to the FAA and the next two days to AVSP (we hope people attend both!) Keynotes will present topics relevant to both communities.
FAAVSP - The 1st Joint Conference on Facial Analysis, Animation and Audio-Visual Speech Processing
The International Symposium on Facial Analysis and Animation (FAA)
The International Conference on Auditory-Visual Speech Processing (AVSP)
11-13 September, 2015
Vienna, Austria
The first day will be devoted to the FAA and the next two days to AVSP (we hope people attend both!) Keynotes will present topics relevant to both communities.
* Description
This conference brings together two established interdisciplinary conferences:
The International Symposium on Facial Analysis and Animation (FAA)
and
The International Conference on Auditory-Visual Speech Processing (AVSP)
Both conferences have a common focus on facial communication research. FAA focuses on facial animation analysis and synthesis addressed in the fields of computer graphics, computer vision and psychology. AVSP focuses on how auditory and visual speech information plays a role in human perception, machine recognition, and human-machine interaction.
The two conferences attract researchers from diverse fields, such as speech processing, computer graphics and computer vision, psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, robotics and electrical engineering.
The aim of this first joint conference is to bring together, from both academia and industry, the two communities of facial animation (FAA) and audiovisual speech (AVSP) to discuss research and exchange ideas, data and experiences.
* Topics
Submission of papers are invited in all areas of facial animation and auditory-visual speech processing including but not limited to:
- Acquisition of Facial Shape, Motion and Texture
- Facial animation and rendering techniques
- Facial Model Based Coding and Compression
- Facial Analysis and Animation for Mobile Applications
- Embodied Virtual Agents
- Visual and Audiovisual Speech Synthesis
- Human and machine recognition of audio-visual speech
- Human and machine models of multimodal integration
- Multimodal and perceptual processing of facial animation and audiovisual events
- Cross-linguistic studies of audio-visual speech processing
- Developmental studies of audio-visual speech processing
- Audio-visual prosody
- Emotion and Expressivity modeling
- Gestures accompanying speech and non-linguistic behavior
- Neuropsychology and neurophysiology of audio-visual speech processing
- Scene analysis using audio and visual speech information
- Data collection and corpora for audio-visual speech processing
The conference will be held in Vienna, Austria, 11.-13. September 2015. The session on September 11 will be devoted to FAA topics and those on September 12-13 to AVSP topics. The keynotes will present topics relevant to both communities.
* Invited Speakers
Volker Helzle (Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, Institute of Animation)
Veronica Orvalho (University of Porto, Department of Computer Science)
Jean-Luc Schwartz (GIPSA Lab, Grenoble)
Frank Soong (Microsoft Research Asia)
Lijuan Wang (Microsoft Research Asia)
* Important Dates:
8 May 2015: Deadline for paper submission
12 June 2015: Notification of acceptance
19 June 2015: Camera-ready paper
11-13 September 2015: Conference
Two types of submission are possible: Abstracts (1 full page) for FAA and AVSP topics, and full papers (4 to 6 pages) for AVSP topics.
The organizing committee of FAAVSP 2015 is looking forward to your submissions.
