Enhancing Facial Emotion Recognition Using Image Processing With Cnn, Sourabh Deokar Jan 2023

Enhancing Facial Emotion Recognition Using Image Processing With Cnn, Sourabh Deokar

Master's Projects

Facial expression recognition (FER) has been a challenging task in computer vision for decades. With recent advancements in deep learning, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown promising results in this field. However, the accuracy of FER using CNNs heavily relies on the quality of the input images and the size of the dataset. Moreover, even in pictures of the same person with the same expression, brightness, backdrop, and stance might change. These variations are emphasized when comparing pictures of individuals with varying ethnic backgrounds and facial features, which makes it challenging for deep-learning models to classify. In this paper, we …

A Study On Human Face Expressions Using Convolutional Neural Networks And Generative Adversarial Networks, Sriramm Muthyala Sudhakar

Master's Projects

Human beings express themselves via words, signs, gestures, and facial emotions. Previous research using pre-trained convolutional models had been done by freezing the entire network and running the models without the use of any image processing techniques. In this research, we attempt to enhance the accuracy of many deep CNN architectures like ResNet and Senet, using a variety of different image processing techniques like Image Data Generator, Histogram Equalization, and UnSharpMask. We used FER 2013, which is a dataset containing multiple classes of images. While working on these models, we decided to take things to the next level, and we …

Analyzing Public Sentiment On Covid-19 Pandemic, Pradeepika Gedupudi

Master's Projects

Sentiment analysis is a method of understanding the user sentiment expressed in the form of text. Social media is the best place to capture the public's opinion regarding how they feel about current events. The Corona Virus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) is one of the worst pandemics we have experienced so far. An important observation is that this pandemic has not only affected the public's physical health but also took a toll on their mental health. Reddit is a social news discussion site where people discuss topics around current affairs in smaller groups called subreddits. The project's primary focus is to build …


Improving Facial Emotion Recognition With Image Processing And Deep Learning, Ksheeraj Sai Vepuri Jun 2021

Improving Facial Emotion Recognition With Image Processing And Deep Learning, Ksheeraj Sai Vepuri

Master's Projects

Humans often use facial expressions along with words in order to communicate effectively. There has been extensive study of how we can classify facial emotion with computer vision methodologies. These have had varying levels of success given challenges and the limitations of databases, such as static data or facial capture in non-real environments. Given this, we believe that new preprocessing techniques are required to improve the accuracy of facial detection models. In this paper, we propose a new yet simple method for facial expression recognition that enhances accuracy. We conducted our experiments on the FER-2013 dataset that contains static facial …

Visual And Lingual Emotion Recognition Using Deep Learning Techniques, Akshay Kajale

Master's Projects

Emotion recognition has been an integral part of many applications like video games, cognitive computing, and human computer interaction. Emotion can be recognized by many sources including speech, facial expressions, hand gestures and textual attributes. We have developed a prototype emotion recognition system using computer vision and natural language processing techniques. Our goal hybrid system uses mobile camera frames and features abstracted from speech named Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) to recognize the emotion of a person. To acknowledge the emotions based on facial expressions, we have developed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, which has an accuracy of 68%. …

Detecting Cars In A Parking Lot Using Deep Learning, Samuel Ordonia May 2019

Detecting Cars In A Parking Lot Using Deep Learning, Samuel Ordonia

Master's Projects

Detection of cars in a parking lot with deep learning involves locating all objects of interest in a parking lot image and classifying the contents of all bounding boxes as cars. Because of the variety of shape, color, contrast, pose, and occlusion, a deep neural net was chosen to encompass all the significant features required by the detector to differentiate cars from not cars. In this project, car detection was accomplished with a convolutional neural net (CNN) based on the You Only Look Once (YOLO) model architectures. An application was built to train and validate a car detection CNN as …

Deep Visual Recommendation System, Raksha Sunil Dec 2018

Deep Visual Recommendation System, Raksha Sunil

Master's Projects

Recommendation system is a filtering system that predicts ratings or preferences that a user might have. Recommendation system is an evolved form of our trivial information retrieval systems. In this paper, we present a technique to solve new item cold start problem. New item cold start problem occurs when a new item is added to a shopping website like Amazon.com. There is no metadata for this item, no ratings and no reviews because it’s a new item in the system. Absence of data results in no recommendation or bad recommendations. Our approach to solve new item cold start problem requires …
