Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for facial analysis comprising:
collecting in-cabin sensor data of a vehicle interior of a vehicle, wherein the in-cabin sensor data includes images of the vehicle interior;
determining a set of seating locations for the vehicle interior, based on the images;
scanning the set of seating locations for performing facial detection for each of the seating locations using a facial detection model;
manipulating a view of a detected face of a first occupant, based on a geometry of the vehicle interior;
analyzing cognitive state data of the detected face, based on additional images of the detected face, using the view that was manipulated;
generating a human perception metric for the detected face, based on the cognitive state data;
creating a classifier for a deep neural network based on the human perception metric;
detecting a face of a second occupant;
categorizing an interaction between the first occupant and the second occupant using the classifier; and
inferring an aggression-based relationship between the first occupant and the second occupant based on the categorizing.
