specific Embodiment approach 1

[0015] Specific implementation mode 1: The specific process of the facial expression recognition method based on multi-branch cross-connection convolutional neural network in this implementation mode is as follows:

[0016] Expression recognition is a classic research topic in the field of computer vision. Existing expression recognition methods can be roughly divided into three categories: expression recognition based on traditional methods, expression recognition based on convolutional neural networks, and expression recognition methods based on fusion of traditional methods and convolutional neural networks.

[0017] For expression recognition based on traditional methods, handcrafted features such as Gabor wavelet coefficients [16] (TianYL, Cohn J F.Evaluation of Gabor-Wavelet-Based Facial Action Unit Recognition in Image Sequences of Increasing Complexity[C] / / Automatic Face and GestureRecognition,2002.Proceedings.Fifth IEEE International Conference on.IEEE,2002.), local ...

Abstract

The invention relates to an expression recognition method, in particular to an expression recognition method based on a multi-branch cross-connection convolutional neural network. The invention aims to solve the problems of low efficiency, serious resource waste and incomplete feature extraction of an existing traditional expression feature extraction method. The method comprises the following steps of: 1, preprocessing a facial expression image data set; 2, a multi-branch cross-connection convolutional neural network is constructed and used for extracting facial expression image features, andthe process is as follows: the multi-branch cross-connection convolutional neural network is composed of a first convolutional layer, a module 1, a module 2, a module 3, a forty-th convolutional layer, a batch standardization BN and a Relu activation function; and 3, classifying the image features extracted by the network by adopting a Softmax classification algorithm, namely connecting a globalmean value pooling after the constructed multi-branch cross-connection convolutional neural network, and carrying out multi-classification by using a Softmax function after a global mean value poolinglayer. The method is applied to the field of expression recognition.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a facial expression recognition method. Background technique [0002] Facial Expression Recognition (FER) mainly predicts basic facial expressions through changes in the appearance of the face. Facial expression is the most direct and effective mode of emotion recognition [1][2] ([1]C.Darwin and P.Prodger,The expression of the emotions in man and animals.Oxford University Press,USA,1998.[2]Y.-I.Tian,T.Kanade,and J.F.Cohn,“Recognizing action units for facial expression analysis,” IEEE Transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence, vol.23, no.2, pp.97–115, 2001.), facial expression recognition is an important branch of face recognition, it has many aspects of human-computer interaction applications, such as fatigue driving detection and real-time expression recognition on mobile phones. At the same time, it also has important developments in various fields such as education monitoring and medical testing. [3-5] ([...
