Abstract

Face and facial expression recognition is a broad research domain in machine learning domain. Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a very recent technique for data decomposition and image analysis. Here we propose face identification system as well as a facial expression recognition, which is a system based on NMF. We get a significant result for face recognition. We test on CK+ and JAFFE dataset and we find the face identification accuracy is nearly 99% and 96.5% respectively. But the facial expression recognition (FER) rate is not as good as it required for the real life implementation. To increase the detection rate for facial expression recognition, our propose fusion based NMF, named as OEPA-NMF, where OEPA means Optimal Expression specific Parts Accumulation. Our experimental result shows OEPA-NMF outperforms the prevalence NMF for facial expression recognition. As face identification using NMF has a good accuracy rate, so we are not interested to apply OEPA-NMF for face identification.
