A Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning Algorithms in Binary Facial Expression RecognitionNordén, Frans, von Reis Marlevi, Filip January 2019 (has links)
In this paper an analysis is conducted regarding whether a higher classification accuracy of facial expressions are possible. The approach used is that the seven basic emotional states are combined into a binary classification problem. Five different machine learning algorithms are implemented: Support vector machines, Extreme learning Machine and three different Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The utilized CNN:S were one conventional, one based on VGG16 and transfer learning and one based on residual theory known as RESNET50. The experiment was conducted on two datasets, one small containing no contamination called JAFFE and one big containing contamination called FER2013. The highest accuracy was achieved with the CNN:s where RESNET50 had the highest classification accuracy. When comparing the classification accuracy with the state of the art accuracy an improvement of around 0.09 was achieved on the FER2013 dataset. This dataset does however include some ambiguities regarding what facial expression is shown. It would henceforth be of interest to conduct an experiment where humans classify the facial expressions in the dataset in order to achieve a benchmark.
