A Novel Feature Extraction Method for Facial Expression Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, a novel facial feature extraction method is proposed for automatic facial expressions recognition, which detecting local texture information, global texture information and shape information of the face automatically to form the facial features. First, Active Appearance Model (AAM) is used to locate facial feature points automatically. Then, the local texture information in these feature points and the global texture feature information of the whole face area are extracted based on the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) techniques, and also the shape information of the face are detected. Finally, all the information are combined together to form the feature vector. The proposed feature extraction method is tested by the JAFFE database and experimental results show that it is promising.

Local gradient pattern - A novel feature representation for facial expression recognition
Many researchers adopt Local Binary Pattern for pattern analysis. However, the long histogram created by Local Binary Pattern is not suitable for large-scale facial database. This paper presents a simple facial pattern descriptor for facial expression recognition. Local pattern is computed based on local gradient flow from one side to another side through the center pixel in a 3x3 pixels region...

Classical LBP such as complexity and high dimensions of feature vectors that make it necessary to apply dimension reduction processes. In this paper, we introduce an improved LBP algorithm to solve these problems that utilizes Fast PCA algorithm for reduction of vector dimensions of extracted features. In other words, proffer method (Fast PCA+LBP) is an improved LBP algorithm that is extracted ...

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) algorithms have been utilized in a wide range of real applications. NMF is done by several researchers to its part based representation property especially in the facial expression recognition problem. It decomposes a face image into its essential parts (e.g. nose, lips, etc.) but in all previous attempts, it is neglected that all features achieved by NMF ...
