This paper presents a novel approach to face recognition. The task of face recognition is to verify a claimed identity by comparing a claimed image of the individual with other images belonging to the same individual/other individual in a database. The proposed method utilizes Local Ternary Pattern and signed bit multiplication to extract local features of a face. The image is divided into small non-overlapping windows. Processing is carried out on these windows to extract features. Test image’s features are compared with all the training images using Euclidean's distance. The image with lowest Euclidean distance is recognized as the true face image. If the distance between test and all training images is more than threshold then test image is considered as unrecognised image or match not found .The face recognition rate of proposed system is calculated by varying the number of images per person in training database

Facial Emotion Recognition using Convolution Neural NetworkYogeshIJTSRD
Facial expression plays a major role in every aspect of human life for communication. It has been a boon for the research in facial emotion with the systems that give rise to the terminology of human computer interaction in real life. Humans socially interact with each other via emotions. In this research paper, we have proposed an approach of building a system that recognizes facial emotion using a Convolutional Neural Network CNN which is one of the most popular Neural Network available. It is said to be a pattern recognition Neural Network. Convolutional Neural Network reduces the dimension for large resolution images and not losing the quality and giving a prediction output whats expected and capturing of the facial expressions even in odd angles makes it stand different from other models also i.e. it works well for non frontal images. But unfortunately, CNN based detector is computationally heavy and is a challenge for using CNN for a video as an input. We will implement a facial emotion recognition system using a Convolutional Neural Network using a dataset. Our system will predict the output based on the input given to it. This system can be useful for sentimental analysis, can be used for clinical practices, can be useful for getting a persons review on a certain product, and many more.

Face Recognition Using Simplified Fuzzy Artmapsipij
Face recognition has become one of the most active research areas of pattern recognition since the early 1990s. This project thesis proposes a novel face recognition method based on Simplified Fuzzy ARTMAP (SFAM). For extracting features to be used for classification, combination of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is used. This is for improving the capability of LDA and PCA when used alone.PCA reduces the dimensionality of input face images while LDA extracts the features that help the classifier to classify the input face images. The classifier employed was SFAM. Experiment is conducted on ORL, Yale and Indian Face Database and results demonstrate SFAM’s efficiency as a recognizer. The training time of SFAM is negligible. SFAM has the added advantage that the network is adaptive, that is, during testing phase if the network comes across a new face that it is not trained for; the network identifies this to be a new face and also learns this new face. Thus SFAM can be used in applications where database needs to be updated frequently. SFAM thus proves itself to be an efficient recognizer when a speedy, accurate and adaptive Face Recognition System is required.

In the era of technology, the voting machine, which is present today, is highly unsecured. Being in the age of Computers we are compromising the security by opting for Electronic voting machine because in the present electronic voting machine is not intelligent that is it cannot determine the person came for the voting is eligible or not . That mean the whole control is kept in the hand of voting in charge officer. One more risk with the present voting machine is that anybody can increase the vote count, since the count is present in the machine itself.
In proposed machine that is “Global Wireless E-Voting” , The machine is made intelligent which can determine the eligibility of the voter by scanning the eye pattern and also the vote count is not kept into the same machine itself instead of it it is store in the remote server by converting it into radio waves. Here there is no chance of increasing the vote count of machine. Even in case of damage to voting machine there will not be harm to continuity of the election process. The machine provides high level of security, authentication, reliability, and corruption -free mechanism. By this we can get result within minute after a completion of voting. Minimum manpower Utilization, hence mechanism is error free.

Face Emotion Analysis Using Gabor Features In Image Database for Crime Invest...Waqas Tariq
The face is the most extraordinary communicator, which plays an important role in interpersonal relations and Human Machine Interaction. . Facial expressions play an important role wherever humans interact with computers and human beings to communicate their emotions and intentions. Facial expressions, and other gestures, convey non-verbal communication cues in face-to-face interactions. In this paper we have developed an algorithm which is capable of identifying a person’s facial expression and categorize them as happiness, sadness, surprise and neutral. Our approach is based on local binary patterns for representing face images. In our project we use training sets for faces and non faces to train the machine in identifying the face images exactly. Facial expression classification is based on Principle Component Analysis. In our project, we have developed methods for face tracking and expression identification from the face image input. Applying the facial expression recognition algorithm, the developed software is capable of processing faces and recognizing the person’s facial expression. The system analyses the face and determines the expression by comparing the image with the training sets in the database. We have followed PCA and neural networks in analyzing and identifying the facial expressions.
PRE-PROCESSING TECHNIQUES FOR FACIAL EMOTION RECOGNITION SYSTEMIAEME Publication
Humans share a universal and fundamental set of emotions which are exhibited through consistent facial expressions. Recognition of human emotions from the imaging templates is useful in a wide variety of human-computer interaction and intelligent systems applications. However, the automatic recognition of facial expressions using image template matching techniques suffer from the natural variability with facial features and recording conditions. In spite of the progress achieved in facial emotion recognition in recent years, the effective and computationally simple feature extraction and classification technique for emotion recognition is still an open problem. Image pre-processing and normalization is significant part of face recognition systems. Changes in lighting conditions produces dramatically decrease of recognition performance. In this paper, the image pre-processing techniques like K-Nearest Neighbor, Cultural Algorithm and Genetic Algorithm are used to remove the noise in the facial image for enhancing the emotion recognition. The performance of the preprocessing techniques are evaluated with various performance metrics.

Emotion Recognition from Facial Expression Based on Fiducial Points Detection...IJECEIAES
The importance of emotion recognition lies in the role that emotions play in our everyday lives. Emotions have a strong relationship with our behavior. Thence, automatic emotion recognition, is to equip the machine of this human ability to analyze, and to understand the human emotional state, in order to anticipate his intentions from facial expression. In this paper, a new approach is proposed to enhance accuracy of emotion recognition from facial expression, which is based on input features deducted only from fiducial points. The proposed approach consists firstly on extracting 1176 dynamic features from image sequences that represent the proportions of euclidean distances between facial fiducial points in the first frame, and faicial fiducial points in the last frame. Secondly, a feature selection method is used to select only the most relevant features from them. Finally, the selected features are presented to a Neural Network (NN) classifier to classify facial expression input into emotion. The proposed approach has achieved an emotion recognition accuracy of 99% on the CK+ database, 84.7% on the Oulu-CASIA VIS database, and 93.8% on the JAFFE database.
Human emotion detection and classification using modified Viola-Jones and con...IAESIJAI
Facial expression is a kind of nonverbal communication that conveys
information about a person's emotional state. Human emotion detection and
recognition remains a major task in computer vision (CV) and artificial
intelligence (AI). To recognize and identify the many sorts of emotions,
several algorithms are proposed in the literature. In this paper, the modified
Viola-Jones method is introduced to provide a robust approach capable of
detecting and identifying human feelings such as angerness,sadness, desire,
surprise, anxiety, disgust, and neutrality in real-time. This technique captures
real-time pictures and then extracts the characteristics of the facial image to
identify emotions very accurately. In this method, many feature extraction
techniques like gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), linear binary
pattern (LBP) and robust principal components analysis (RPCA) are applied
to identify the distinct mood states and they are categorized using a
convolution neural network (CNN) classifier. The obtained outcome
demonstrates that the proposed method outperforms in terms of determining
the rate of emotion recognition as compared to the current human emotion
recognition techniques.
A study of techniques for facial detection and expression classificationIJCSES Journal
Automatic recognition of facial expressions is an important component for human-machine interfaces. It
has lot of attraction in research area since 1990's.Although humans recognize face without effort or
delay, recognition by a machine is still a challenge. Some of its challenges are highly dynamic in their
orientation, lightening, scale, facial expression and occlusion. Applications are in the fields like user
authentication, person identification, video surveillance, information security, data privacy etc. The
various approaches for facial recognition are categorized into two namely holistic based facial
recognition and feature based facial recognition. Holistic based treat the image data as one entity without
isolating different region in the face where as feature based methods identify certain points on the face
such as eyes, nose and mouth etc. In this paper, facial expression recognition is analyzed with various
methods of facial detection,facial feature extraction and classification.
Most face recognition algorithms are generally capable to achieve a high level of accuracy when
the image is acquired under wellcontrolled conditions. The face should be still during the acquisition
process; otherwise, the resulted image would be blur and hard for recognition. Enforcing persons to stand
still during the process is impractical; extremely likely that recognition should be performed on a blurred
image. It is important to understand the relation between the image blur and the recognition accuracy. The
ORL Database was used in the study. All images were in PGM format of 92 × 112 pixels from forty
different persons, ten images per person. Those images were randomly divided into training and testing
datasets with 50-50 ratio. Singular value decomposition was used to extract the features. The images in
the testing datasets were artificially blurred to represent a linear motion, and recognition was performed.
The blurred images were also filtered using various methods. The accuracy levels of the recognition on the
basis of the blurred faces and filtered faces were compared. The performed numerical study suggests that
at its best, the image improvement processes are capable to improve the recognition accuracy level by
less than five percent.

Facial emotion recognition using deep learning detector and classifier IJECEIAES
Numerous research works have been put forward over the years to advance the field of facial expression recognition which until today, is still considered a challenging task. The selection of image color space and the use of facial alignment as preprocessing steps may collectively pose a significant impact on the accuracy and computational cost of facial emotion recognition, which is crucial to optimize the speed-accuracy trade-off. This paper proposed a deep learning-based facial emotion recognition pipeline that can be used to predict the emotion of detected face regions in video sequences. Five well-known state-of-the-art convolutional neural network architectures are used for training the emotion classifier to identify the network architecture which gives the best speed-accuracy trade-off. Two distinct facial emotion training datasets are prepared to investigate the effect of image color space and facial alignment on the performance of facial emotion recognition. Experimental results show that training a facial expression recognition model with grayscale-aligned facial images is preferable as it offers better recognition rates with lower detection latency. The lightweight MobileNet_v1 is identified as the best-performing model with WM=0.75 and RM=160 as its hyperparameters, achieving an overall accuracy of 86.42% on the testing video dataset.
Independent Component Analysis of Edge Information for Face RecognitionCSCJournals
In this paper we address the problem of face recognition using edge information as independent components. The edge information is obtained by using Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) and Canny edge detection methods then preprocessing is done by using Principle Component analysis (PCA) before applying the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) algorithm for training of images. The independent components obtained by ICA algorithm are used as feature vectors for classification. The Euclidean distance and Mahalanobis distance classifiers are used for testing of images. The algorithm is tested on two different databases of face images for variation in illumination and facial poses up to 180 degree rotation angle.
Facial Expression Recognition Based on Facial Motion Patternsijeei-iaes
Facial expression is one of the most powerful and direct mediums embedded in human beings to communicate with other individuals’ feelings and abilities. In recent years, many surveys have been carried on facial expression analysis. With developments in machine vision and artificial intelligence, facial expression recognition is considered a key technique of the developments in computer interaction of mankind and is applied in the natural interaction between human and computer, machine vision and psycho- medical therapy. In this paper, we have developed a new method to recognize facial expressions based on discovering differences of facial expressions, and consequently appointed a unique pattern to each single expression.by analyzing the image by means of a neighboring window on it, this recognition system is locally estimated. The features are extracted as binary local features; and according to changes in points of windows, facial points get a directional motion per each facial expression. Using pointy motion of all facial expressions and stablishing a ranking system, we delete additional motion points that decrease and increase, respectively, the ranking size and strenghth. Classification is provided according to the nearest neighbor. In the conclusion of the paper, the results obtained from the experiments on tatal data of Cohn-Kanade demonstrate that our proposed algorithm, compared to previous methods (hierarchical algorithm combined with several features and morphological methods as well as geometrical algorithms), has a better performance and higher reliability.
COMPRESSION BASED FACE RECOGNITION USING TRANSFORM DOMAIN FEATURES FUSED AT M...sipij
The physiological biometric trait face images are used to identify a person effectively. In this paper, we
propose compression based face recognition using transform domain features fused at matching level. The
2D images are converted into 1-D vectors using mean to compress number of pixels. The Fast Fourier
Transform (FFT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) are used to extract features. The low and high
frequency coefficients of DWT are concatenated to obtained final DWT features. The performance
parameters are computed by comparing database and test image features of FFT and DWT using Euclidian
Distance (ED). The performance parameters of FFT and DWT are fused at matching level to obtain better
results. It is observed that the performance of proposed method is better than the existing methods.

4. Literature Review
According to literatures, it’s wildly known that there are six different types of emotion:
Happiness, Anger, Sadness, Fear, Surprise and Disgust. Besides, neutral is another option as a
seventh emotion in some literature for emotion recognition. This thesis concentrates on
identifying the facial expression using thermal images instead of visible image recognition.
1.1 Visible image based spontaneous expression recognition
For the past few years, with the gradual development of imaging processing technology,
facial expression recognition of visible images is rapidly developed. The main research
content include following fields:
Face Detection, Location and Tracking, determine the face location among a variety of
images, extract features then track the certain face in a bunch of image sequence. This step
named as the pre-process of expression recognition has become an independent research
topic with serious treatment.
Feature Extraction, extract relative information to characterize facial emotion among a set
of facial images or image sequence. This feature can be captured in time-domain or
frequency-domain which contains the gray information, geometric feature or texture
information etc. Feature extraction is the key step and difficulty of entire facial emotion
recognition, meanwhile, appropriate features can promote the efficiency and effect of the
classification system. So far, the method of feature extraction include: using Karhunen-
Loeve procedure[1], PCA[2], 2D DCT[3] and k-means algorithm, Singular Value
Decomposition and Hidden Markov Model, to capture expression feature vectors.
Expression Recognition, adopts classifier and classification algorithms of pattern
recognition system which inputs are a set of image futures and outputs are belonged to an
emotion catalogue. In order to determine the best algorithm and classifier, the method
wildly used are KNN algorithms; SVM expression classifier[4]; Facial Animation
Parameters and Multistream HMMs[5] [6]etc.
Based on the general research of emotion recognition, numerous constructive
5. methodologies were proposed to identify human’s facial expression with high accuracy
and efficiency. However, most of them focus on posted facial expression to distinguish the
emotion. On the contrary, expression is a kind of facial movement inspired by inner feeling
in real life. Therefore, spontaneous expressions can better reflect the authentic thought of a
person when compared with posted ones which maintain more valuable meaning.
Consequently, this thesis aims on researching spontaneous expression recognition.
1.2 The research status of infrared image expression recognition
Up to now, the emotion recognition achieves a certain progress mainly in the field of
visible images or image sequences. Whereas, because of the imaging mechanism of
visible images, the facial expression recognition algorithms are interfered by illumination
situation based on this field. However, what thermal cameras capture is temperature
distribution of facial vein branches which is not sensitive to lightning conditions.
Therefore, the thesis topic this report focuses on can remedy the disadvantages and faults
of visible image emotion recognition to a great extent which is a significant research trend
in future[7].
Currently, the research of thermal emotion recognition is just getting started in both posted
and spontaneous expression. Representative researches among them are:
1. The methodology of image segmentation by Yoshiaki Sugimoto is divided face into
eyes, nose, mouse, cheek, chin etc. to extract feature of each part then fit a straight
line in order to analyzing the difference of infrared image thermal field distribution.
However, this analytical method depends on thermal images with high degree of
accuracy and high requirement of photographic equipment[8].
2. Masood Mehmood Khan came up with a classification method in three-dimension
domain. In this paper, it combines LDA taxonomy with testing temperature of certain
facial points to establish the 3D domain model[9]. In addition, Leonardo Trujillo
combines SVM taxonomy with facial point temperature to classify emotion as
well[10]. These two methodologies perform well but with limitation of professional
equipment to measure facial point temperature which is a weakness of real-time
system processing.
3. Y. Yoshitomi mentioned that process the subtraction operation between expression
images and neutral images firstly, segment to extract features then combines the
6. neural network learning to classify human emotion[11]. Compared this method with
previous ones, it avoids processing many unnecessary data to increase the efficiency
of algorithms and recognition rate ( the recognition rate for Neutral, Happy, Surprise,
Sad expressions are 80%, 95%, 100%, 85% separately). Nevertheless, when
subtracting with neutral images, it inevitably involves image alignment problem
which may introduce error during the whole actual operation.
4. Guotai Jiang and other research stuffs think using mathematical morphology to
extract features and classify emotion. This method is operated in low dimension and
easy to achieve[12]. However, there are only two pictures being used in experiment as
database, thus, the correctness and extensibility of this algorithm remain to be
discussed.
5. In Benjamin Hernandez’s theory, extracting features of forehead, eyes, cheeks, mouse
to analysis with SVM taxonomy is an effective way to reduce the amount of data
which the recognition rate is around 76.6%[13]. But, it’s hard to solve how to
normalize the segmented regions in real operation.
6. Jenkins reports using Pearson product-moment relative coefficients to calculate the
correlation between temperature change of forehead and EEG self-report. It indicates
that the forehead temperature variation can reflect different emotion of human
beings[14].
7. In Jarlier’s report, it analysis the difference in thermal images when facial motion
units move in various strength and speed. In the experiment, 4 experts play 9 different
facial movements to test which proves the feasibility of thermal analysis of facial
muscles contraction[15]. However, how to tract the movement unit is an obstacle of
this technology.
In this report, the method is extracting facial thermal features based on the wavelet
analysis. According to the advantage of this method, it is not necessary to track and
segment face image or subtract the image registration which reduce the error during
image registration. Meanwhile, as a methodology of gray scale matrix conversion, it can
contain more valuable information of thermal images. In this report, it proposed a
method of infrared facial expression recognition based on 2 layers 2D wavelet transform.
It does 2 layers of 2D wavelet transform to images, chooses approximation coefficients
as features by Largest Euclidean Distance, and recognizes the expressions by K -Nearest
Neighbors. The algorithm is validated effect on USTC-NVIE database.
