A Peek at Peak Emotion Recognition
share
Despite much progress in the field of facial expression recognition, little attention has been paid to the recognition of peak emotion. Aviezer et al. [1] showed that humans have trouble discerning between positive and negative peak emotions. In this work we analyze how deep learning fares on this challenge. We find that (i) despite using very small datasets, features extracted from deep learning models can achieve results significantly better than humans. (ii) We find that deep learning models, even when trained only on datasets tagged by humans, still outperform humans in this task.
