Abstract

Efficient emotional state analyzing will enable machines to understand human better and facilitate the development of applications which involve human–machine interaction. Recently, deep learning methods become popular due to their generalization ability, but the disadvantage of complicated computation could not meet the requirements of real-time characteristics. This paper proposes an emotion recognition framework based on convolution neural network, which contains less number of parameters comparatively. In order to verify the proposed framework, we train a network on a large number of facial expression images and then use the pretrained model to predict image frame taken from a single camera. The experiment shows that compared to VGG13, our network reduces the parameters by 147 times.
