Abstract

Micro-expressions are short, involuntary facial expressions which reveal hidden emotions. Micro-expressions are important for understanding humans' deceitful behavior. Psychologists have been studying them since the 1960's. Currently the attention is elevated in both academic fields and in media. However, while general facial expression recognition (FER) has been intensively studied for years in computer vision, little research has been done in automatically analyzing micro-expressions. The biggest obstacle to date has been the lack of a suitable database. In this paper we present a novel Spontaneous Micro-expression Database SMIC, which includes 164 micro-expression video clips elicited from 16 participants. Micro-expression detection and recognition performance are provided as baselines. SMIC provides sufficient source material for comprehensive testing of automatic systems for analyzing micro-expressions, which has not been possible with any previously published database.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
