This travel grant supports US graduate students to attend the Doctoral Consortium to be held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2013) to be held on April 22-26, 2013. Attendees include graduate students who are working on their dissertations and have been accepted to the consortium. Each student participant is paired with a senior researcher who serves as his/her mentor during the conference. Each participant also presents his/her research at a doctoral Consortium luncheon open to participants and mentors and also presents his/her research in a poster session open to all attendees of the conference. Graduate students play critical roles in conducting innovative and groundbreaking research. The consortium provides talented young researchers the opportunity to discuss their work formally and informally with both their peers and senior researchers. These interactions with others coming from different research labs with different viewpoints typically strengthen the ability of young researchers to communicate the value of their own work and to set their work more clearly in the broader context of the research field as a whole. The successful career of graduate students would be imperative to advance the state of the art in new algorithms and applications related to face, gesture, and body motion, leading to new capabilities in areas such as biometrics, interactive systems, surveillance, and healthcare.

这项旅行补助金支持美国研究生参加与IEEE国际自动面部和手势认可会议（FG 2013）一起举行的博士联盟（FG 2013）。与会人员包括正在撰写论文并已被接受为联盟的研究生。每个学生参与者都与一位在会议期间担任导师的高级研究员配对。每个参与者还向参与者和导师开放的博士联盟午餐会上介绍了他/她的研究。研究生在进行创新和开创性的研究中发挥关键作用。该财团为才华横溢的研究人员提供了与同行和高级研究人员正式和非正式讨论他们的工作的机会。这些与来自不同研究实验室的其他人的互动通常可以增强年轻研究人员传达自己的工作价值并在整个研究领域更广泛的背景下更清楚地设置自己的工作的能力。研究生的成功职业生涯必须在与面部，手势和身体运动有关的新算法和应用中提高最新技术，从而在生物识别技术，交互式系统，监视和医疗保健等领域获得新的能力。
