In this paper, Deterministic Cellular Automata (DCA) based video shot classification and retrieval is proposed. The deterministic 2D Cellular automata model captures the human facial expressions, both spontaneous and posed. The... more
Independently, we created descriptive systems to characterize chimpanzee facial behavior, responding to a common need to have an objective, standardized coding system to ask questions about primate facial behaviors. Even with slightly... more
A framework for generating facial expressions from emotional states in daily conversation is described. It provides a mapping between emotional states and facial expressions, where the former is represented by vectors with... more
We present a robust method to map detected facial Action Units (AUs) to six basic emotions. Automatic AU recognition is prone to errors due to illumination, tracking failures and occlusions. Hence, traditional rule based methods to map... more
Facial expression has been a focus of emotion research for over a hundred years (Darwin, 1872/1998). It is central to several leading theories of emotion (Ekman, 1992; Izard, 1977; Tomkins, 1962) and has been the focus of at times heated... more
A psychiatrist was filmed, interviewing 59 patients who had just made a suicide attempt. Within two years, 11 of these patients made one more suicide attempt. This group was matched with a similar group of 12 patients who did not... more
The computer vision field has advanced to the point that we are now able to begin to apply automatic facial expression recognition systems to important research questions in behavioral science. The machine perception lab at UC San Diego... more

The advance of computing technology has provided the means for building intelligent vehicle systems. Drowsy driver detection system is one of the potential applications of intelligent vehicle systems. Previous approaches to drowsiness... more
We describe a computer vision system for observing the" action units" of a face using video sequences as input. The visual observation (sensing) is achieved by using anoptimal estimation optical flow method coupled with a... more
Impaired facial expressions of emotions have been described as characteristic symptoms of schizophrenia. Differences regarding individual facial muscle changes associated with specific emotions in posed and evoked expressions remain... more

This study examines the development of children's ability to express emotions in their human figure drawing. Sixty children of 5, 8, and 11 years were asked to draw "a... more
