Abstract

This paper presents a real-time automatic facial feature point detection method for facial expression recognition. The system is capable of detecting seven facial feature points (eyebrows, pupils, nose, and corners of mouth) in grayscale images extracted from a given video. Extracted feature points then used for facial expression recognition. Neutral, happiness and surprise emotions have been studied on the Bosphorus dataset and tested on FG-NET video dataset using OpenCV. We compared our results with previous studies on this dataset. Our experiments showed that proposed method has the advantage of locating facial feature points automatically and accurately in real-time.
