The recognition of emotions via facial expressions is a complex process of piecing together various aspects of each facial feature. Since viewing a single facial feature in isolation may result in an inaccurate recognition of emotion, this paper attempts training neural networks to first identify specific facial features in isolation, and then use the general pattern of expressions on the face to identify the overall emotion. The technique presented is very basic, and can definitely be improved with more advanced techniques that incorporate time<br>and context.

Facial Images

The face is the feature which distinguishes a person. Facial appearance is vital for human recognition. It has certain features like forehead, skin, eyes, ears, nose, cheeks, mouth, lip, teeth etc which helps us, humans, to recognize a particular face from millions of faces even after a large span of time and despite large changes in their appearance due to ageing, expression, viewing conditions and distractions such as disfigurement of face, scars, beard or hair style. A face is not merely a set of facial features but is rather but is rather something meaningful in its form.In this paper, depending on the various facial features, a system is designed to recognize them. To reveal the outline of the face, eyes, ears, nose, teeth etc different edge detection techniques have been used. These features are extracted in the term of distance between important feature points. The feature set obtained is then normalized and are feed to artificial neural networks so as to train them for reorganization of facial images.

With the advent of the deep learning method, portrait video stylization has become more popular. In this paper, we present a robust method for automatically stylizing portrait videos that contain small human faces. By extending the Mask Regions with Convolutional Neural Network features (R-CNN) with a CNN branch which detects the contour landmarks of the face, we divided the input frame into three regions: the region of facial features, the region of the inner face surrounded by 36 face contour landmarks, and the region of the outer face. Besides keeping the facial features region as it is, we used two different stroke models to render the other two regions. During the non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) of the animation video, we combined the deformable strokes and optical flow estimation between adjacent frames to follow the underlying motion coherently. The experimental results demonstrated that our method could not only effectively reserve the small and distinct facial features, but also follow the underlying motion coherently.

The purpose of this article is to summarize the knowledge gained in the development and implementation of a neural network for facial recognition. Neural networks are used to solve complex tasks that require analytical calculations similar to what the human brain does. Machine learning algorithms are the foundation of a neural network. As input, the algorithm receives an image with people's faces, then searches for faces in this image using HOG (Histogram of oriented gradients). The result is images with explicit face structures. To determine unique facial features, the Face landmark algorithm is used, which finds 68 special points on the face. These points can be used to centerthe eyes and mouth for more accurate encoding. To get an accurate “face map” consisting of 128 dimensions, you need to use image encoding. Using the obtained data, the convolutional neural network can determine people's faces using the SVM linear classifier algorithm.

The Face

In this paper, a system that can automatically detect and recognise frontal faces is proposed. Three methods are used for face recognition; neural network, template matching and distance measure. One of the main problems encountered when using neural networks for face recognition is insufficient training data. This problem arises because, in most cases, only one image per subject is available. Therefore, amongst the objectives is to solve this problem by "increasing" the data available from the original image using several preprocesses, for example, image mirroring, colour and edges information, etc. Moreover, template matching is not trivial because of differences in the template shapes and sizes. In this work, template matching is aided by a genetic algorithm to automatically test several positions around the target and automatically adjust the size of the template as the matching process progresses. Distance measure method depends heavily on good facial feature extraction results. The image segmentation method applied matches such demand. The face colour information is represented using YIQ and the XYZ colour spaces. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by performing computer simulations. Two sets of databases were used. Database1 consists of 267 faces from the Oulu university database and database2 (for comparision purposes) consists of 250 faces from the ORL database.

Eye Region

Orientation of gaze toward specific regions of the face such as the eyes or the mouth helps to correctly identify the underlying emotion. The present eye-tracking study investigates whether facial features diagnostic of specific emotional facial expressions are processed preferentially, even when presented outside of subjective awareness. Eye movements of 73 healthy individuals were recorded while completing an affective priming task. Primes (pictures of happy, neutral, sad, angry, and fearful facial expressions) were presented for 50 ms with forward and backward masking. Participants had to evaluate subsequently presented neutral faces. Results of an awareness check indicated that participants were subjectively unaware of the emotional primes. No affective priming effects were observed but briefly presented emotional facial expressions elicited early eye movements toward diagnostic regions of the face. Participants oriented their gaze more rapidly to the eye region of the neutral mask after a fearful facial expression. After a happy facial expression, participants oriented their gaze more rapidly to the mouth region of the neutral mask. Moreover, participants dwelled longest on the eye region after a fearful facial expression, and the dwell time on the mouth region was longest for happy facial expressions. Our findings support the idea that briefly presented fearful and happy facial expressions trigger an automatic mechanism that is sensitive to the distribution of relevant facial features and facilitates the orientation of gaze toward them.

The COVID-19 virus can be spread through contact and contaminated surfaces; therefore, typical biometric systems like password and fingerprint are unsafe. Face recognition solutions are safer without any need of touching any device. During the COVID-19 situation as all of the people are advised to wear masks on their faces, the existing face detection technique is not able to identify the person with face occlusion. The fraudsters and thieves take advantage of this scenario and misuse the face mask, favoring them to be able to steal and commit various crimes without being identified. Face recognition methods fail to detect or recognize the face as half of the face is masked and the features are suppressed. Face recognition requires the visibility of major facial features for face normalization, orientation correction, and recognition. Thus, the chapter focuses on the facial recognition based on the feature points surrounding the eye region rather than taking the whole face as a parameter.

Human facial feature extraction is an important process in the face recognition system. The quality of the results from the extraction of human facial features is determined by the degree of accuracy. The weighting of human facial features is used to test the accuracy of the methods used. This research produces the process of weighting the facial features automatically. The results obtained are the same as those seen by the human eyes.

Human Emotions

Human emotion identification from image sequences is highly demanded nowadays. The range of possible applications can vary from an automatic smile shutter function of consumer grade digital cameras to Biofied Building technologies, which enables communication between building space and residents. The highly perceptual nature of human emotions leads to the complexity of their classification and identification. The main question arises from the subjective quality of emotional classification of events that elicit human emotions. A variety of methods for formal classification of emotions were developed in musical psychology. This work is focused on identification of human emotions evoked by musical pieces using human face tracking and optical flow analysis. Facial feature tracking algorithm used for facial feature speed and position estimation is presented. <br><br> Facial features were extracted from each image sequence using human face tracking with local binary patterns (LBP) features. Accurate relative speeds of facial features were estimated using optical flow analysis. Obtained relative positions and speeds were used as the output facial emotion vector. The algorithm was tested using original software and recorded image sequences. The proposed technique proves to give a robust identification of human emotions elicited by musical pieces. The estimated models could be used for human emotion identification from image sequences in such fields as emotion based musical background or mood dependent radio.
