Identification of changes in pig behavior or interaction such as playing, sniffing, chewing, lying, or aggression is important for taking the necessary action if needed. Manual identification of pig behavior by human observers is not possible because it requires  continuous monitoring. It is, therefore, essential to develop an automated method that quantifies pig behavior.

Ovarian cancer is among the top health issues faced by women everywhere in the world . Ovarian tumours have a wide range of possible causes. Detecting and tracking down these cancers in their early stages is difficult which adds to the difficulty of treatment. In most cases, a woman finds out she has ovarian cancer after it has already spread. In addition, as technology in the field of artificial intelligence advances, detection can be done at an earlier level. Having this data will assist the gynaecologist in treating these tumours as soon as possible.

IREYE4TASK is a dataset for wearable eye landmark detection and mental state analysis. Sensing the mental state induced by different task contexts, where cognition is a focus, is as important as sensing the affective state where emotion is induced in the foreground of consciousness, because completing tasks is part of every waking moment of life. However, few datasets are publicly available to advance mental state analysis, especially those using the eye as the sensing modality with detailed ground truth for eye behaviors.

The ability to perceive human facial emotions is an essential feature of various multi-modal applications, especially in the intelligent human-computer interaction (HCI) area. In recent decades, considerable efforts have been put into researching automatic facial emotion recognition (FER). However, most of the existing FER methods only focus on either basic emotions such as the seven/eight categories (e.g., happiness, anger and surprise) or abstract dimensions (valence, arousal, etc.), while neglecting the fruitful nature of emotion statements.
