Abstract :
In this paper, we present our approach for automatic facial expression recognition. We use a feature extraction technique inspired by our empirical study on human recognition of facial expressions. We propose our dual-layer hierarchical SVM ensemble mechanism for classification. We also provide system architecture and system implementation details in this paper.
