....to explore in depth. To prove our point, note that skilled humans can assess emotional signals with varying degrees of precision. For example, researchers are beginning to make progress giving computers similar abilities to accurately recognize affective expressions [3, 4] facial expressions [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10], and gestural expression [11, 12] Although computers only perform as well as people in highly restricted domains, we believe that: a. accurately identifying a learner s cognitiveemotive state is a critical observation that will enable teachers to provide learners with an efficient and ....

Recognizers have already been built for a handful of the facial actions [17] [18] [19] 20] and the automated recognizers have been shown to perform comparably to humans trained in recognizing facial actions [18] These facial actions are essentially facial phonemes, which can be assembled to form facial expressions. There are also recent efforts that indicate that combining ....

.... were tailored towards buildingmodels to recognize the universal expressions from static images or video sequences [4, 8, 14] Recently, some work is being done towards recognition of individual action units that measure muscle action, proposed by Ekman as the basis for Facial Action Coding (FACS) [1, 5, 6]. All the experiments done and models built for facial actions or expressions require precise image registration and in some cases temporal alignment [6] The image sequences used for these experiments depict very discrete and clean examples of specific action units or expressions which are almost ....

In computer vision, several successful projects have used dynamic image sequences to analyze facial action (Cohn et al. 1999; Essa and Pentland, 1997; Bartlett, 1998; Yacoob and Davis, 1996) Though facial action is inherently dynamic and the dynamics are crucial for understanding the relationships between affect and expression, the static photographs in POFA are used extensively in perceptual experiments, partly ....

Manual facial action coding (FACS) 5] automated facial analysis using feature tracking (AFA) [6], and facial electromyography (EMG) were used to investigate the dynamic properties of smiling. Video and EMG data were collected throughout a session that included baseline (seated with eyes open) and viewing of film clips. Smiles studied were observed during the viewing of a comedy routine, ....

....and immediate means for human beings to communicate emotions and intentions. Often emotions are expressed through the face before they are verbalized. In the past decade, much progress has been made in building computer systems to understand and use this natural form of human communication [1, 3, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, 18, 22, 19, 23, 24, 25]. Two procedures are necessary for an automatic expression analysis system: facial feature extraction and facial expression recognition. In facial feature extraction, there are mainly two types of approaches: geometric feature based methods and appearance based methods. In geometric feature based ....

.... (i.e. joy, surprise, anger, sadness, fear, and disgust) 8, 13, 24, 26] However, in everyday life, emotion is often communicated by changes in one or two discrete facial features, such as tightening the lips in anger or obliquely lowering the lip corners in sadness [4] Some researchers [1, 5, 7, 11, 22, 19] have attempted to recognize the fine grained changes in facial expression based on the Facial Action Coding System (FACS) We focus on AU recognition. Zhang et al. 26] have compared two type of features, the geometric positions of 34 fiducial points on a face and 612 Gabor wavelet coefficients ....

Experiment results The dual state eye tracking method was tested using 500 image sequences from the Pitt CMU Facial Expression AU Coded Database [4]. Subjects ranged in age from 3 years to 30 years and included males and females of European, African, and Asian ancestry. They were videotaped in an indoor environment with uniform lighting. During recording, the camera was positioned in front of the subjects and provided for a full face view. ....
