چکیده

A framework for automatic facial expression recognition combining Active Appearance Model (AAM) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is proposed. Seven different expressions of several subjects, representing the neutral face and the facial emotions of happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear and disgust were analysed. The proposed solution starts by describing the human face by an AAM model, projecting the appearance results to a Fisherspace using LDA to emphasize the different expression categories. Finaly the performed classification is based on malahanobis distance.

A Hierarchal Approach to Facial Expression Recognition using Active Appearance Models for Service Robots

For better interaction between human beings and service robots we need to detect the emotional state of the human user. This can help the robot adapt to the user’s needs and can be used to increase the naturalness of the interaction. Our work proposes a hierarchal approach to facial expression recognition based extracting some facial features with the help of an Active Appearance Model. We intr...

Recognition of Human Facial Expression in a Video Image using the Active Appearance Model

Tracking human facial expression within a video image has many useful applications, such as surveillance and teleconferencing, etc. Initially, the Active Appearance Model (AAM) was proposed for facial recognition; however, it turns out that the AAM has many advantages as regards continuous facial expression recognition. We have implemented a continuous facial expression recognition system using...

Bilinear factorization for facial expression analysis and synthesis

This paper addresses the issue of face representations for facial expression recognition and synthesis. In this context, a global active appearance model is used in conjunction with two bilinear factorization models to separate expression and identity factors from the global appearance parameters. Although active appearance models and bilinear modelling are not new concepts, the main contributi...

Facial Expression Recognition Based on Constrained Local Models and Support Vector Machines

This paper presents a face expression recognition algorithm using Constrained Local Model (CLM). CLM is facial alignment method that is based on Active Shape Models (ASM) and Active Appearance Models (AAM). It takes the advantages of both of them and gains high accuracy. To distinguish different expression states, we use CLM model parameters that describe shape deformation in a compact form. Th...

Model Based Face Recognition Across Facial Expressions

This paper describes a novel idea of face recognition across facial expression variations using model based approach. The approach follows in 1) modeling an active appearance model (AAM) for the face image, 2) using optical flow based temporal features for facial expression variations estimation, 3) and finally applying binary decision trees as a classifier for facial identification. The novelt...
