Micro-facial expressions (MEs) are involuntary movements of the face that occur spontaneously in a high-stakes environment. Computational analysis and automation of tasks on micro-expressions is an emerging area in face research, with a strong interest appearing from 2014. Only recently, the availability of a few spontaneously induced facial micro-expression datasets has provided the impetus to advance further from the computational aspect. Particularly comprehensive are two state-of-the art FACS coded datasets: CASME II and SAMM. While much research has been done on these datasets individually, there has been no attempts to introduce a more rigorous and realistic evaluation to work done in this domain. This is the inaugural workshop in this area of research, with the aim of promoting interactions between researchers and scholars from within this niche area of research, and also including those from broader, general areas of expression and psychology research.
