Abstract

It has recently been shown that the facial expression space as a psychophysical image space is a Riemann space where the metric tensor is defined by the JND (Just-Noticeable-Difference) discrimination thresholds at every point in the space. The major obstacle to understand this space is how to estimate the metric tensor in high dimensions which requires an inaccessible number of psychophysical experiments. In this paper we address two fundamental issues: methods to estimate the Riemann metric tensor in a high dimensional space and how to define and to determine the effective dimensions of Riemann spaces and psychophysical spaces. We introduce new definitions for these dimensions and novel algorithms for estimating the high dimensional Riemann metric tensor and for dimension reduction to low dimensional subspaces. We then apply these algorithms to the facial expressions space. The Riemann metric tensor of the high dimensional facial expression space is estimated from psychophysical measurements of JND data. We apply these methods to investigate the facial expression space. We describe our experiments to estimate the effective dimension (together with upper and lower bounds) of Riemann manifolds and psychophysical spaces.
