Facial expression recognition computer technology can obtain the emotional information of the person through the expression of the person to judge the state and intention of the person. The article proposes a hybrid model that combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) and dense SIFT features. This model is used for facial expression recognition. First, the article builds a CNN model and learns the local features of the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth. Then, the article features are sent to the support vector machine (SVM) multiclassifier to obtain the posterior probabilities of various features. Finally, the output result of the model is decided and fused to obtain the final recognition result. The experimental results show that the improved convolutional neural network structure ER2013 and CK+ data sets’ facial expression recognition rate increases by 0.06% and 2.25%, respectively.

The goal of research in Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is to build a robust and strong recognizability model. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for FER systems based on convolutional neural network. Part of the regular convolution operation is replaced by depthwise separable convolution to reduce the number of parameters and the computational workload; the self-adaption joint loss function is adopted to improve the classification performance. In addition, we balance our train set through data augmentation, and we preprocess the input images through illumination processing, face detection, and other methods, effectively maximizing the expression recognition rate. Experiments to validate our methods are conducted based on the TensorFlow platform and Fer2013 dataset. We analyze the experimental results before and after train set balancing and network model modification, and we compare our results with those of other researchers. The results show that our method is effective at increasing the expression recognition rate under the same experiment conditions. We further conduct an experiment on our own expression dataset relevant to driving safety, and it yields similar results.

As an important part of emotion research, facial expression recognition is a necessary requirement in human–machine interface. Generally, a face expression recognition system includes face detection, feature extraction, and feature classification. Although great success has been made by the traditional machine learning methods, most of them have complex computational problems and lack the ability to extract comprehensive and abstract features. Deep learning-based methods can realize a higher recognition rate for facial expressions, but a large number of training samples and tuning parameters are needed, and the hardware requirement is very high. For the above problems, this paper proposes a method combining features that extracted by the convolutional neural network (CNN) with the C4.5 classifier to recognize facial expressions, which not only can address the incompleteness of handcrafted features but also can avoid the high hardware configuration in the deep learning model. Considering some problems of overfitting and weak generalization ability of the single classifier, random forest is applied in this paper. Meanwhile, this paper makes some improvements for C4.5 classifier and the traditional random forest in the process of experiments. A large number of experiments have proved the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

AbstractThis study presents a new color-depth based face database gathered from different genders and age ranges from Iranian subjects. Using suitable databases, it is possible to validate and assess available methods in different research fields. This database has application in different fields such as face recognition, age estimation and Facial Expression Recognition and Facial Micro Expressions Recognition. Image databases based on their size and resolution are mostly large. Color images usually consist of three channels namely Red, Green and Blue. But in the last decade, another aspect of image type has emerged, named “depth image”. Depth images are used in calculating range and distance between objects and the sensor. Depending on the depth sensor technology, it is possible to acquire range data differently. Kinect sensor version 2 is capable of acquiring color and depth data simultaneously. Facial expression recognition is an important field in image processing, which has multiple uses from animation to psychology. Currently, there is a few numbers of color-depth (RGB-D) facial micro expressions recognition databases existing. With adding depth data to color data, the accuracy of final recognition will be increased. Due to the shortage of color-depth based facial expression databases and some weakness in available ones, a new and almost perfect RGB-D face database is presented in this paper, covering Middle-Eastern face type. In the validation section, the database will be compared with some famous benchmark face databases. For evaluation, Histogram Oriented Gradients features are extracted, and classification algorithms such as Support Vector Machine, Multi-Layer Neural Network and a deep learning method, called Convolutional Neural Network or are employed. The results are so promising.

Manusia secara alami menggunakan ekspresi wajah untuk berkomunikasi dan menunjukan emosi mereka dalam berinteraksi sosial. Ekspresi wajah termasuk kedalam komunikasi non-verbal yang dapat menyampaikan keadaan emosi seseorang kepada orang yang telah mengamatinya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Principal Component Analysis (PCA) untuk proses ekstraksi ciri pada citra ekspresi dan metode Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) sebagai prosesi klasifikasi emosi, dengan menggunakan data Facial Expression Recognition-2013 (FER-2013) dilakukan proses training dan testing untuk menghasilkan nilai akurasi dan pengenalan emosi wajah. Hasil pengujian akhir mendapatkan nilai akurasi pada metode PCA sebesar 59,375% dan nilai akurasi pada pengujian metode CNN sebesar 59,386%.
