behavioral sciences, cybersecurity, and other disciplines which have or can leverage automated emotion recognition through the fusion of multiple modalities. This workshop will discuss various ubiquitous sensing devices (e.g., brain, face, thermal, physiological,
environmental, positional, etc.) to decode emotions in ways relevant to specific applications and domains. This workshop aims to expose current use cases for affective computing and emerging applications of affective computing to spark future work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
