• Abstract: Understanding the facial expressions of our interlocutor is important to enrich the communication and to give it a depth that goes beyond the explicitly expressed. In fact, studying one's facial expression gives insight into their hidden emotion state. However, even as humans, and despite our empathy and familiarity with the human emotional experience, we are only able to guess what the other might be feeling. In the fields of artificial intelligence and computer vision, Facial Emotion Recognition (FER) is a topic that is still in full growth mostly with the advancement of deep learning approaches and the improvement of data collection. The main purpose of this paper is to compare the performance of three state-of-the-art networks, each having their own approach to improve on FER tasks, on three FER datasets. The first and second sections respectively describe the three datasets and the three studied network architectures designed for an FER task. The experimental protocol, the results and their interpretation are outlined in the remaining sections.

  We introduce eye behaviors as an important emotional cues for the creation of a new Eye-behavior-aided Multimodal Emotion Recognition dataset. For the first time, we provide annotations for both Emotion Recognition (ER) and Facial Expression Recognition (FER) in the EMER dataset. We specifically design a new EMERT architecture to concurrently enhance performance in both ER and FER.

CIAO presents an improvement in facial expression recognition performance over six different datasets with very unique affective representations.

  We propose a novel Scene-Object interreLated Visual Emotion Reasoning network (SOLVER) to predict emotions from images. To mine the emotional relationships between distinct objects, we first build up an Emotion Graph based on semantic concepts and visual features. We also design a Scene-Object Fusion Module to integrate scenes and objects, which exploits scene features to guide the fusion process of object features with the proposed scene-based attention mechanism.

  We propose a stimuli-aware visual emotion analysis (VEA) method consisting of three stages, namely stimuli selection, feature extraction and emotion prediction. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time to introduce stimuli selection process into VEA in an end-to-end network. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches on four public visual emotion datasets.

We discuss some challenges and promising research directions in the future, such as image content and context understanding, group emotion clustering, and viewer-image interaction.

Considering the phenomenon of uneven data distribution and lack of samples is common in real-world scenarios, we evaluate several tasks of few-shot expression learning. We propose a unified task-driven framework - Compositional Generative Adversarial Network (Comp-GAN) learning to synthesize facial images.
