چکیده

In this paper are presented two distinct Bayesian networks to analyse human beings’ facial expressions. Both classifiers are completely defined: structure of the networks, belief variables and respective events, likelihoods, initial priors and procedure to change dynamically priors. The performance (relatively to the convergence) of the two approaches is compared. For both networks, the classification is done associating the facial expression to the probabilities of five emotional states: anger, fear, happy, sad and neutral. A justification for the usage of this set is presented: it is based in emotional states presented by human beings during social relationships. Classifiers as these described here can be used in Human Robot Interation. We believe that this interaction shall be done in a similar way of that used by human beings to communicate between them and, after all, facial expressions is one of the main non-verbal means of communication used by human.

Recognizing facial expressions from videos using Deep Belief Networks

Deep learning techniques have been shown to perform well for problems such as image classification and handwriting analysis. In this project we aim to apply these deep learning techniques to recognize facial expressions from videos. We employ sparse feature selection to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the classification [5]. We begin by considering images, and extend the algorithms to cl...

Differentiating Between Posed and Spontaneous Expressions with Latent Regression Bayesian Network

Spatial patterns embedded in human faces are crucial for differentiating posed expressions from spontaneous ones, yet they have not been thoroughly exploited in the literature. To tackle this problem, we present a generative model, i.e., Latent Regression Bayesian Network (LRBN), to effectively capture the spatial patterns embedded in facial landmark points to differentiate between posed and sp...
