Funded Activity Summary

The human face as an evolved signalling system. This project will, for the first time, thoroughly investigate the role that facial movement plays in human non-verbal communication. It will uncover the subtle, dynamic signals that are exchanged in almost all everyday social encounters, enriching our understanding of human communication and forming a solid basis for detecting intentions from an analysis of facial movements, with the obvious security benefits that entails.
