[Jonathan Gratch]

We would like to invite you to participate in the Affective Computing Pre-Conference, held in conjunction with the 2017 Annual Conference of the Society for Affective Science.  The Pre-Conference will be held on April 27, 2017 in Boston, MA.  Details on the meetings can be found here: https://society-for-affective-science.org/2017AnnualMeeting

The Affective Computing Pre-Conference will feature state-of-the-science research on computational techniques for understanding, recognizing and shaping human emotion, and emphasize ways to strengthen interdisciplinary connections between the computational and human sciences of emotion. Invited speakers will discuss the latest research on computational methods, and on how methods can transform research in affective science.
Abstract Submissions:

We will be accepting abstract submissions for Poster and "Flash Talk" presentation. Presentations should address topics in affective computing, broadly defined (e.g, emotion recognition, emotion modeling, affective responses to technology). Anyone is welcome to submit but only a subset of the submissions can be accommodated. To be considered, please email Su Lei<mailto:slei at ict.usc.edu> an abstract (maximum 2 pages, including bibliography) that outlines goals of the research, methods used an summary of results. Please title your email "AFFECTIVE COMPUTING PRE-CONFERENCE" and indicate in your proposal is for a Flash Talk or for a poster presentation, and whether you would like your Flash Talk proposal to be considered for a poster presentation if it is not selected for oral presentation. Data must be collected prior to submission. The deadline for submissions is Sunday, January 15, 2017. Submissions can span career status from faculty to graduate students.
