Beyond Facial Expressions: Learning Human Emotion from Body Gestures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vision-based human affect analysis is an interesting and challenging problem, impacting important applications in many areas. In this paper, beyond facial expressions, we investigate affective body gesture analysis in video sequences, a relatively understudied problem. Spatial-temporal features are exploited for modeling of body gestures. Moreover, we present to fuse facial expression and body gesture at the feature level using Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). By establishing the relationship between the two modalities, CCA derives a semantic “affect” space. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approaches.

Integrating Facial, Gesture, and Posture Emotion Expression for a 3d Virtual Agent
Facial expressions, gestures, and body postures can portray emotions in a non-verbal way. These methods are frequently employed by actors in theatrical plays or in movies, or even by virtual characters such as those found in computer games, animated storybooks, and website e-assistants. Signals for emotion expressions (“cues”), such as a raised fist and narrowing of the eyes, substantially infl...
متن کاملSurvey on Emotional Body Gesture Recognition
Automatic emotion recognition has become a trending research topic in the past decade. While works based on facial expressions or speech abound recognizing affect from body gestures remains a less explored topic. We present a new comprehensive survey hoping to boost research in the field. We first introduce emotional body gestures as a component of what is commonly known as "body language" and ...

Darwin's evolutionary approach to organisms' emotional states attributes a prominent role to expressions of emotion in whole-body actions. Researchers in social psychology [1,2] and human development [3] have long emphasized the fact that emotional states are expressed through body movement, but cognitive neuroscientists have almost exclusively considered isolated facial expressions (for review...

Human emotions are expressed using the facial expressions, the tone of voice, hands and body gestures .An approach of interaction between the computer-human must be accurate and robust. We use the concept of multi classifier systems to study the human emotions, audio-visual detection system. Automate recognition of emotional state, machines must be taught expressions to understand facial gestur...
