Text to announce a new CHI dataset

Dear CHI-Resources support team,

As discussed with Paula, I am sending you the text to make an announcement
about the SpeakingFaces dataset:

*Subject:  *
SpeakingFaces dataset released - a fusion of thermal, visual and audio
streams.

*Text:*
SpeakingFaces is a publicly-available large-scale dataset developed to
support multimodal machine learning research in contexts that utilize a
combination of thermal, visual, and audio data streams. Examples include
human-computer interaction, biometric authentication and recognition
systems.

The dataset is comprised of well-aligned high-resolution thermal and visual
spectra image streams of fully-framed faces synchronized with audio
recordings of each subject speaking approximately 100 imperative phrases.

Data were collected from a diverse and genderly balanced population of 142
subjects, yielding over 13,000 instances of synchronized data (~3.8TB).

SpeakingFaces is publicly available from the Institute of Smart Systems and
Artificial Intelligence of the Nazarbayev University. More detailed
information can be found at
https://issai.nu.edu.kz/speakingfaces/. A short video of the project is
also available via the link.

Best regards,
Madina Abdrakhmanova
