چکیده

Expressions are facial activities invoked by sets of muscle motions, which would give rise to large variations in appearance mainly around facial parts. Therefore, for visual-based expression analysis, localizing the action parts and encoding them effectively become two essential but challenging problems. To take them into account jointly for expression analysis, in this paper, we propose to adapt 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (3D CNN) with deformable action parts constraints. Specifically, we incorporate a deformable parts learning component into the 3D CNN framework, which can detect specific facial action parts under the structured spatial constraints, and obtain the discriminative part-based representation simultaneously. The proposed method is evaluated on two posed expression datasets, CK+, MMI, and a spontaneous dataset FERA. We show that, besides achieving state-of-the-art expression recognition accuracy, our method also enjoys the intuitive appeal that the part detection map can desirably encode the mid-level semantics of different facial action parts.
