This project aims to classify the emotion on a person's face into one of seven categories, using deep convolutional neural networks. This repository is an implementation of this research paper. The model is trained on the FER-2013 dataset which was published on International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML). This dataset consists of 35887 grayscale, 48x48 sized face images with seven emotions - angry, disgusted, fearful, happy, neutral, sad and surprised.
- Python 3, OpenCV 3 or 4, Tensorflow 1 or 2
- To install the required packages, run
pip install -r requirements.txt.
The repository is currently compatible with tensorflow-2.0 and makes use of the Keras API using the tensorflow.keras library.
-
First, clone the repository with
git clone https://github.com/atulapra/Emotion-detection.gitand enter the cloned folder:cd Emotion-detection. -
Download the FER-2013 dataset from here and unzip it inside the
Tensorflowfolder. This will create the folderdata. -
If you want to train this model or train after making changes to the model, use
python emotions.py --mode train. -
If you want to view the predictions without training again, you can download my pre-trained model
(model.h5)from here and then runpython emotions.py --mode display. -
The folder structure is of the form:
Tensorflow:- data (folder)
emotions.py(file)haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml(file)model.h5(file
-
This implementation by default detects emotions on all faces in the webcam feed.
-
With a simple 4-layer CNN, the test accuracy peaked at around 50 epochs at an accuracy of 63.2%.
-
First, we use haar cascade to detect faces in each frame of the webcam feed.
-
The region of image containing the face is resized to 48x48 and is passed as input to the ConvNet.
-
The network outputs a list of softmax scores for the seven classes.
-
The emotion with maximum score is displayed on the screen.
