Abstract
In this study, we found effective facial expressions with the minimal elements required to identify someone's emotion. One circle for each eye and one for the mouth makes triangular facial expressions. In all the preceding studies, facial expressions have only used visual details that had been shown in three dimensions, with the mouth being stretched wide, the face tilted, and the eyes slanted. As well as previously discovered in affective studies, the correlations between visual input and outcomes have correlated. We discovered that people exhibit ten expressions of feeling, which are (I) happy, (II) angry, (III) sad, (IV) disgust, (V) fear, (VI) surprised, (VII) angry*, (VIII) fear*, (IX) neutral pleasant (positive), and (X) neutral unpleasant (negative). Mathematical transformations transmitted the feelings. Cultural variations are also noted in face expressions described in the article.
