The task of the emotion recognition in the wild (EmotiW) Challenge is to assign one of seven emotions to short video clips extracted from Hollywood style movies. The videos depict acted-out emotions under realistic conditions with a large…

Video memorability is a measure of how likely a particular video is to be remembered by a viewer when that viewer has no emotional connection with the video content. It is an important characteristic as videos that are more memorable are…
