详细技术说明
University of California (UC) researchers have developed a facial expression system able to automatically classify human facial expression in videos.  This novel invention utilizes a system that detects faces from videos, registers the face images, and creates a single image representation for the whole video.  The facial features are extracted to create an Emotion Avatar Image (EAI) as a single good representation for each video or image sequence for emotion recognition. Finally, a Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used for classification. By utilizing a single representation for a facial expression session, UC researchers are able to transform the whole expression recognition problem from image sequence back to static image that is amenable for real-time application.
*Abstract

Current facial recognition techniques are limited to analyzing the spatial and temporal information for every single frame of video.  The inherent challenge for facial expression recognition and predicting human emotion is the dilemma between rigid motion of the head pose and the non-rigid motion of facial muscles.  Current technology has a credible capacity to estimate head pose, however, difficulty arises estimating non-rigid motion of facial muscles with issues such as non-rigid morphing and person specific appearance.
