Abstract
AbstractWe develop a new method to recognize facial expressions. Sparse representation based classification (SRC) is used as the classifier in this method, because of its robustness to occlusion. Histograms of Oriented Gradient (HOG) descriptors and Local Binary Patterns are used to extract features. Since the results of HOG+SRC and LBP+SRC are complimentary, we use a classifier combination strategy to fuse these two results. Experiments on Cohn-Kanade database show that the proposed method gives better performance than existing methods such as Eigen+SRC, LBP+SRC and so on. Furthermore, the proposed method is robust to assigned occlusion.Keywords Terms-facial expression recognitionHOG descriptorsLocal binary patternClassifiers combinationSparse representation based classification (SRC)assigned occlusion
