---------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fifth Emotion Recognition in the Wild 2017 Challenge consists of
multimodal classification challenges, which mimics real-world conditions.
Traditionally, emotion recognition has been performed on laboratory
controlled data. While undoubtedly worthwhile at the time, such lab
controlled data poorly represents the environment and conditions faced in
real-world situations. With the increase in the number of video clips
online, it is worthwhile to explore the performance of emotion recognition
methods that work ‘in the wild’. There are two sub-challenges: audio-video
based emotion recognition in videos and group-level emotion recognition in
the images (new).
