Facial Expression Recognition based on Local Binary Patterns (LBP)

Abstract

A tough however exciting challenge is that the analysis of expressions of face be done automatically. Deriving effective facial representative features from face pictures being a significant step towards flourishing expression recognition is concentrated throughout this paper. Local features called Local Binary Patterns (LBP) are enforced for empirical analysis of face expression recognition. In depth experiments prove that this feature extraction is effective. The Uniform-LBP is employed and therefore the high performance is achieved.
