Book Biologically Inspired Facial Emotion Recognition

Download or read book Biologically Inspired Facial Emotion Recognition written by Alberto C. Cruz and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When facial emotion recognition is performed in unconstrained settings, humans outperform state-of-the-art algorithms. The major technical problems of a state-of-the-art system are that: (1) they attempt to use all of the frames in the training data to build a training model, even frames that are redundant or are not necessary to describe a person's emotions. (2) If the system is using a Gabor filter as a facial feature descriptor, it captures noise due to background texture as important edge information when this information is erroneous, and the amount of computer memory required to describe the faces using the Gabor filter is undesireable high. (3) Most of the current algorithms do not generalize to unconstrained data because each person expresses his/her emotions in different ways, and the persons in the testing data are not the same persons encountered in the training data. In these situations, current approaches perform inadequately because models developed from training data cannot properly predict the emotions of unseen testing samples. We address each of these three problems by presenting systems that are based on the human visual system. The first system, called vision and attention theory, downsamples the training and testing data temporally to reduce the memory cost. The second system, called background-suppressing Gabor filtering, represented the face in the same way the human visual system's non-classical receptive field represents a face to overcome background texture. The third system, called score-based facial emotion recognition, scores a frontal face image's relationship to references of a face and temporal. We thoroughly test all systems on four different, publicly available datasets: the Japanese Female Facial Expression Database, Cohn-Kanade+, Man-Machine Interface and the Audio/Visual Emotion Challenge. We find that our systems, which emulated the human visual system, perform better than state-of-the-art systems. This work shows promise for the detection of facial emotion in unconstrained settings.

Book Face Recognition

Download or read book Face Recognition written by Gita Sukthankar and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This paper analyzes the merits of two biologically-inspired face recognition models, eigenfaces and graph-matching, in the context of related neurophysiological and psychophysical data. Given the ambiguity of current biological evidence, a more promising direction for future face recognition research is in the development of models that conform more closely to human perception of facial similarity."

Book Biologically Inspired Collaborative Computing

Download or read book Biologically Inspired Collaborative Computing written by George A. Agoston and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1979 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Look deep into nature and you will understand everything better.” advised Albert Einstein. In recent years, the research communities in Computer Science, Engineering, and other disciplines have taken this message to heart, and a relatively new field of “biologically-inspired computing” has been born. Inspiration is being drawn from nature, from the behaviors of colonies of ants, of swarms of bees and even the human body. This new paradigm in computing takes many simple autonomous objects or agents and lets them jointly perform a complex task, without having the need for centralized control. In this paradigm, these simple objects interact locally with their environment using simple rules. Applications include optimization algorithms, communications networks, scheduling and decision making, supply-chain management, and robotics, to name just a few. There are many disciplines involved in making such systems work: from artificial intelligence to energy aware systems. Often these disciplines have their own field of focus, have their own conferences, or only deal with specialized s- problems (e.g. swarm intelligence, biologically inspired computation, sensor networks). The Second IFIP Conference on Biologically-Inspired Collaborative Computing aims to bridge this separation of the scientific community and bring together researchers in the fields of Organic Computing, Autonomic Computing, Self-Organizing Systems, Pervasive Computing and related areas. We are very pleased to have two very important keynote presentations: Swarm Robotics: The Coordination of Robots via Swarm Intelligence Principles by Marco Dorigo (Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium), of which an abstract is included in this volume.

Download or read book Face Recognition written by Katherine B. Leeland and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Face perception is the process by which the brain and mind understand and interpret the face, particularly the human face. The face is an important site for the identification of others and conveys significant social information. Probably because of the importance of its role in social interaction, psychological processes involved in face perception are known to be present from birth, to be complex, and to involve large and widely distributed areas in the brain. These parts of the brain can be damaged to cause a specific impairment in understanding faces known as prosopagnosia. This book presents the latest research in the field.
