Abstract

Facial emotion recognition will become vitally important in future multi-cultural visual communication systems, for emotion translation between cultures, which may be considered analogous to speech translation. However so far the recognition of facial emotions is mainly addressed by computer vision researchers, based on facial display. Also detection of vocal expressions of emotions can be found in research work done by acoustic researchers. Most of these research paradigms are devoted purely to visual or purely to auditory human emotion detection. However we found that it is very interesting to consider both these auditory and visual information together, for processing, since we hope this kind of multi-modal information processing will become a datum of information processing in future multimedia era. By several intensive subjective evaluation studies we found that human beings recognise anger, happiness, surprise and dislike by their visual appearance, compared to voice only detection. When the audio track of each emotion clip is dubbed with a different type of auditory emotional expression, still anger, happiness and surprise were video dominant. However the dislike emotion gave mixed responses to different speakers. In both studies we found that sadness and fear emotions were audio dominant. As a conclusion, we propose a method of facial emotion detection by using a hybrid approach, which uses multi-modal information for facial emotion recognition.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The method proposed by Cohn et al. deals neither with image sequences containing several facial actions in a row, nor with inaccurate facial data, nor with facial action intensity.

    “The method proposed by Cohn et al. deals neither with image sequences containing several facial actions in a row, nor with inaccurate facial data, nor with facial action intensity (yet the concept of the method makes it possible).”
  • The Cohn et al. method achieved classification accuracy of 92 percent for the eyebrow region, 88 percent for the eye region and 83 percent for the nose/mouth region.

    “The accuracy of the classification was 92 percent for the eyebrow region, 88 percent for the eye region and 83 percent for the nose/ mouth region.”

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.
