Deep Learning Architectures for Facial Emotion Analysis

Published: 27 December 2023 Publication History

Abstract

Mental illnesses, which affect 1 in 4 people globally, can harm a person's life if they are not detected and treated properly. To visually assess a person's mental condition, facial emotion recognition plays a huge role. One way to help automate this process is to use a trained model that can detect a person's emotion using their face as an input. With the advances of technologies capable of detecting a person's emotion, various models have been developed. To find out which model works better to detect a person's emotion, a study to compare EfficientNet-B2 and VGG19 is done. Both models are trained and evaluated against the FER+ dataset with 30 epochs. On the test split of the dataset, VGG19 achieved an accuracy of 90.58%. EfficientNet-B2 on the other hand achieved an accuracy of 78.22% on the test split of the dataset. Both models achieved low accuracy and F1 scores on disgust, fear, and contempt emotions.
