TY - CONF AU - Bogdan Raducanu AU - Fadi Dornaika A2 - ICRA PY - 2010// TI - Dynamic Facial Expression Recognition Using Laplacian Eigenmaps-Based Manifold Learning BT - IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation SP - 156–161 N2 - In this paper, we propose an integrated framework for tracking, modelling and recognition of facial expressions. The main contributions are: (i) a view- and texture independent scheme that exploits facial action parameters estimated by an appearance-based 3D face tracker; (ii) the complexity of the non-linear facial expression space is modelled through a manifold, whose structure is learned using Laplacian Eigenmaps. The projected facial expressions are afterwards recognized based on Nearest Neighbor classifier; (iii) with the proposed approach, we developed an application for an AIBO robot, in which it mirrors the perceived facial expression.
