摘要
With the advancement of computer vision techniques in surveillance systems,the need for more proficient,intelligent,and sustainable facial expressions and age recognition is necessary.The main purpose of this study is to develop accurate facial expressions and an age recognition system that is capable of error-free recognition of human expression and age in both indoor and outdoor environments.The proposed system first takes an input image pre-process it and then detects faces in the entire image.After that landmarks localization helps in the formation of synthetic face mask prediction.A novel set of features are extracted and passed to a classifier for the accurate classification of expressions and age group.The proposed system is tested over two benchmark datasets,namely,the Gallagher collection person dataset and the Images of Groups dataset.The system achieved remarkable results over these benchmark datasets about recognition accuracy and computational time.The proposed system would also be applicable in different consumer application domains such as online business negotiations,consumer behavior analysis,E-learning environments,and emotion robotics.
