Abstract

Various Facial Expression Recognition (FER) systems have been studied in the field of computer vision and machine learning to encode expression information from facial representations. In this research paper, a facial emotion recognition system is proposed, addressing automatic face detection and facial expression recognition using 1) Residual Neural Network (RESNET) and 2) Combined Residual Neural Network + Long Short-Term Memory (Combined RESNET+LSTM). The architectures of RESNET and Combined RESNET+LSTM are inspired by the human retina structure and human primary visual cortex structure. The proposed architectures are compared with each other. They are tested using a challenging public database.
