Intelligent facial emotion recognition and semantic-based topic detection for a humanoid robot
The work employs anatomical truth of facial behaviour to recognise seven emotions. 17 Action Units are recognised using upper and lower action analysers. A facial emotion recogniser uses the derived actions to further decode emotions. Latent Semantic Analysis is used to identify topics beyond linguistic constraints. The overall development is integrated with a modern humanoid robot platform.
