Th is fascination has permeated the engineering community\, motivating the de velopment of affective computing methods. However\, human emotion remains notoriously difficult to accurately detect. As a result\, emotion classifi cation techniques are not always effective when deployed. This is a probl em because we are missing out on the potential that emotion recognition pr ovides: the opportunity to automatically measure an aspect of behavior tha t provides critical insight into our health and wellbeing\, insight that i s not always easily accessible. In this talk\, I will discuss our efforts in developing emotion recognition approaches that are effective in natura l environments and demonstrate how these approaches can be used to support mental health.\n\nBiography\n\nEmily Mower Provost is an Associate Profes sor in Computer Science and Engineering and Toyota Faculty Scholar at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering f rom the University of Southern California (USC)\, Los Angeles\, CA in 2010 . She has been awarded a National Science Foundation CAREER Award (2017)\, the Oscar Stern Award for Depression Research (2015)\, a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship (2004-2007). She is a co-author o n the paper\, “Say Cheese vs. Smile: Reducing Speech-Related Variability f or Facial Emotion Recognition\,” winner of Best Student Paper at ACM Multi media\, 2014\, and a co-author of the winner of the Classifier Sub-Challen ge event at the Interspeech 2009 emotion challenge. Her research interests are in human-centered speech and video processing\, multimodal interfaces design\, and speech-based assistive technology. The goals of her research are motivated by the complexities of the perception and expression of hum an behavior.
