Conference, Conference Center Dublin, Dublin, Ireland
Grateful for having had the opportunity to attend the biggest speech technology event of the year: Interspeech 2023! And for being able to present our joint work with my hard-working colleague Emma Reyner Fuentes on predicting the gender-based violence victim condition from speech using machine learning, working together in the UC3M4Safety Team.
Defense, UC3M Leganés, Madrid, Spain
I am equally proud and happy to announce that I defended my Doctoral Thesis with Cum Laude Distinction, titled “Multimodal Affective Computing in Wearable Devices with Applications in the Detection of Gender-based Violence”. The Committee was composed by Dr. Elisabeth André, Dr. Emilia Parada-Cabaleiro and Dr. Elena Romero-Perales. I’d like to thank specially my PhD Supervisor for all her support and guidance, Dr. Carmen Peláez-Moreno.
Database, UC3M Leganés, Madrid, Spain
The team is proud to present the first release of the open access WEMAC Database. A multimodal women data emotions database captured to help the research on detection of gender-based violence situations. We release this database with the aim of sharing it with the research community, encouraging the improvement of the baseline results and advancing in the research of multi-modal emotion analysis in general and, in gender-based equality, in particular. The code is available here!
