Summary

Facial Scanning, AI Technology, Microexpressions - Join us in this week's podcast as we discuss the intersection of artificial intelligence and facial analysis technology with Jason Rogers, a senior research scientist at Noldus Information Technology! We delve into Noldus' advanced face reader technology, which utilizes machine learning to map facial expressions and classify emotions. From behavioral research to enhancing security systems, we speculate about the future applications of facial scanning in aesthetic medicine and consumer testing. We also touch on the potential for AI to revolutionize facial plastic surgery by providing precise, data-driven insights for cosmetic treatments. Jason emphasizes how facial analysis technology can advance our understanding of emotions, particularly through microexpressions. Tune in for insights into the evolving role of AI in facial plastic surgery and aesthetics!

0:00.0	Well, hello, hello, guys. You're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K, Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon.
0:19.9	And today on the podcast, I want to dive
0:22.6	deep into artificial intelligence and the use of scanning technology facial analysis with a really
0:30.7	amazing company. We're talking with Jason Rogers, who's a senior research scientist at Noldas
0:36.5	information technology. And I stumbled upon
0:39.9	NOLDUS a couple years back in researching what's available for facial expression analysis and looking
0:45.0	at, you know, science information technologies that are out there. So NOLDIS has been, I think,
0:50.7	one of the best things out there. It's the premier technology for facial expression
0:54.6	analysis. So Jason, tell us a little bit about how long you've been at NOLDUS. What does NOLDIS do?
1:00.6	And what are the projects going on there? Yeah. Thank you so much for inviting me and having
1:05.5	me on the podcast. It means a lot. NOLD's mission is essentially empowering behavioral researchers.
1:13.7	So we provide software,
1:20.6	hardware solutions for the study of all things behavior, from reptiles to bugs to humans,
1:24.3	to dogs, cats, mice. If there's an animal and you're interested in what it does,
1:29.0	Nolus has a solution for them. And the one that we're talking most about today is the use of our face reader technology, which is built on the pioneering
1:36.1	research of Paul Ekman into universal expressions and then incorporates machine learning,
1:42.7	deep learning techniques and algorithms for automatically
1:46.3	finding a face, mapping expressions, classifying emotions, or expressions, looking at muscles,
1:52.8	et cetera, et cetera.
1:54.6	So fascinating.
1:56.2	So, I mean, all of this technology is in use already at airports and security cameras around the world.
2:04.9	Sure.
