Static Facial Expressions In The Wild: Data and Experiment Protocol project

Research Project

Researchers: Dr Roland Goecke ,  The Australian National University

Brief description

Quality data recorded in varied realistic environments is vital for effective human face related research. Facial expression analysis has been a very active field of research and many robust methods have been reported in the literature in the past. However these methods have been experimented on different databases and using different protocols within the same databases. We have presented a static facial expression database derived from movies. As part of ongoing work, we will provide baseline results based on the experimentation protocols discussed. We hope that this database and its experimentation protocols will provide a useful platform for progress in facial expression recognition and analysis research.
