报告主要内容：

Emotions play a key role in human-human interactions and become one key focus in future Artificial Intelligence. There is a growing need to develop emotionally intelligent interfaces, which are able to read the emotions of the users and adapt their operations accordingly. Among the areas of application are human-robot interaction, emotional chatpots, health and medicine, on-line learning, user or customer analysis, and security and safety. Face analysis based on computer vision will play a key role in developing such interfaces. This talk will provide an introduction to the emotional interfaces, and overviews our recent progress in related research. The research topics to be covered include facial expression recognition, analysis of micro-expressions, emotional gestures, remote heart rate measurement from videos and potential applications. Finally, some future challenges are outlined.
