EmoDe - Emotion Detector (An Automatic Facial Expression Interpreter)

[welltoncosta]

source code?

@welltoncosta It's written in Java, but I can't give out the code because I'm developing it for Horizon Digital Economy Research Institute... It uses snakes for tracking and OpenCV for the facial feature tracking

In your presentation I was only noticing the universals as designed by Dr. Ekman. Two questions for you. Does it recognize and articulate the codes from FACS? Secondly is it possible to utilize your software to advance the research in detecting a pattern in FACS to outline the sub categories with in the universals. For example the emotion of fiero in conjunction to kvell as discussed in Dr. Ekmans book " emotions revealed?"

@reedmcclintock I don't really understand your first question fully. The system can only recognise the 6 basic emotions: (Happiness, Fear, Anger, Surprise, Sadness, Disgust) so It doesn't recognise Fiero or any other sub-emotions... The program uses the Action Units as described by Paul Ekman in FACS to determine what emotion is being experienced

Hi there, this is so cool! I'm learning FACS just to create five levels of smile for my study. find it difficult! Can your software differentiate 20% to 100% smiles?

@nextmichelle No, in its current state it can't, but I am working for the university now and am developing it further... Something like this might be explored at a later date
