2.2 EXISTING SYSTEM:

Before the advent of Emotion Detective, the analysis of audience sentiments and movie reviews
relied primarily on traditional methods of textual sentiment analysis. These methods involved
parsing through textual reviews posted on various online platforms such as review websites,
social media platforms, and forums.

Natural language processing (NLP) techniques were often employed to extract sentiment
indicators from the textual content, categorizing reviews as positive, negative, or neutral based
on keywords, sentiment lexicons, or machine learning models. While textual sentiment analysis
provided valuable insights into the opinions and sentiments expressed by viewers, it had several
limitations

Limitations of Existing System:

1. Lack of Nuance: Textual sentiment analysis often struggled to capture the nuanced and
complex nature of human emotions. Written reviews might not fully convey the intensity or
subtlety of emotional responses experienced by viewers during movie watching.

4
2. Subjectivity: The interpretation of textual reviews is inherently subjective, relying on the
understanding and judgment of analysts or algorithms. Different analysts may interpret the
same review differently, leading to inconsistencies in sentiment analysis results.

3. Limited Context: Textual sentiment analysis lacks the ability to capture non verbal cues

network models used for facial expression recognition and sentiment analysis. These models
15
leverage deep learning techniques to accurately classify facial expressions and correlate them
with movie reviews. The architecture encompasses several key components, including feature
extraction, convolutional layers, recurrent layers, and classification layers.

1. Facial Expression Recognition Model:

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Layers: The facial expression recognition model
begins with a series of convolutional layers responsible for extracting spatial features from
input facial images. These convolutional layers utilize filters to detect patterns and structures
indicative of different facial expressions.

Pooling Layers: After each convolutional layer, pooling layers are applied to downsample
the feature maps and reduce spatial dimensions while preserving essential information. Max
pooling or average pooling techniques may be employed for this purpose.

Fully Connected Layers: Following the convolutional and pooling layers, fully connected
layers are utilized to transform the extracted features into a higher level representation suitable
for classification. These layers incorporate non linear activation functions such as ReLU
(Rectified Linear Unit) to introduce non linearity and capture complex relationships between
features.

Softmax Classifier: The final layer of the model is a softmax classifier that outputs
probabilities for each class corresponding to different facial expressions (e.g., joy, sadness,
anger). The softmax function normalizes the output probabilities, ensuring they sum to one and
represent the likelihood of each class.

2. Sentiment Analysis Model:

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) or Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) Layers: For
sentiment analysis of textual movie reviews, RNN or LSTM layers are commonly used to
capture sequential dependencies and temporal relationships in the input text. These recurrent
layers process the text sequentially, updating internal states at each time step and retaining
memory of previous words.

Word Embedding Layer: Prior to feeding text data into the recurrent layers, a word
embedding layer is employed to transform individual words into dense, continuous vector

16
representations. Word embeddings capture semantic relationships between words and enable
the model to better understand the contextual meaning of text.

Bidirectional Processing: Bidirectional RNN or LSTM architectures may be utilized to

process text in both forward and backward directions, allowing the model to capture contextual
information from both past and future words simultaneously.

Attention Mechanism: Optionally, an attention mechanism may be incorporated into the

model architecture to dynamically weigh the importance of different words in the input text.
Attention mechanisms enhance the model's ability to focus on relevant information and
improve sentiment analysis performance.

3. Integration of Models:

Fusion Layer: To correlate facial expressions with movie reviews, the outputs of the facial
expression recognition model and sentiment analysis model are integrated at a fusion layer.
This fusion layer may combine the output probabilities from both models using weighted
averaging or concatenation techniques.

Correlation Module: Finally, a correlation module analyzes the integrated outputs to identify
relationships between detected facial expressions and the sentiment expressed in movie
reviews. Statistical methods or machine learning algorithms may be employed in this module
to quantify the correlation and derive meaningful insights.

By combining facial expression recognition and sentiment analysis models within the Emotion
Detective architecture, the system can effectively analyze audience sentiments and predict
movie reviews based on both visual and textual cues, providing valuable insights to
stakeholders in the film industry.

3.5 MODEL DESCRIPTION

Model Description:

17
The models utilized in Emotion Detective play a crucial role in accurately recognizing facial
expressions and analyzing sentiment in movie reviews. Below is a detailed description of each
model used in the system:

1. Facial Expression Recognition Model:

The facial expression recognition model is a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture
designed to classify facial expressions into distinct emotion categories such as joy, sadness,
anger, surprise, and more.The model architecture typically consists of multiple convolutional
layers followed by pooling layers to extract hierarchical features from input facial images.
These features are then passed through fully connected layers to generate predictions for each
emotion category.

The model is trained on large scale datasets of labeled facial expressions, such as the CK+
(Extended Cohn Kanade) or FER (Facial Expression Recognition) datasets. During training,
the model learns to map input facial images to corresponding emotion labels through
supervised learning techniques. Training of the facial expression recognition model involves
optimization of model parameters using techniques such as stochastic gradient descent (SGD),
backpropagation, and regularization methods to minimize classification errors and improve
generalization performance.

The performance of the model is evaluated using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall,
and F1 score on validation and test datasets. Cross validation techniques may be employed to
assess the model's robustness and generalization ability.

2. Sentiment Analysis Model:

The sentiment analysis model is a recurrent neural network (RNN) or long short term memory
(LSTM) architecture designed to analyze sentiment in textual movie reviews and classify them
into positive, negative, or neutral categories.

The model architecture typically includes embedding layers to represent words as dense
vectors, followed by recurrent layers (RNN or LSTM) to capture sequential dependencies in
the input text. Additionally, fully connected layers and softmax classifiers are used to predict
sentiment labels.

18
 The sentiment analysis model is trained on large scale datasets of movie reviews labeled with
sentiment polarity (positive, negative, neutral). During training, the model learns to identify
patterns and sentiment cues in the text through supervised learning techniques. Similar to the
facial expression recognition model, the sentiment analysis model undergoes optimization of
model parameters using techniques such as gradient descent, backpropagation, and
regularization to minimize classification errors and enhance performance.

The performance of the sentiment analysis model is evaluated using metrics such as accuracy,
precision, recall, and F1 score on validation and test datasets. Cross validation techniques may
be employed to assess the model's performance across different subsets of data The outputs of
the facial expression recognition model and sentiment analysis model are integrated at a fusion
layer within .

This fusion layer combines the predictions from both models using techniques such as weighted
averaging or concatenation. The integrated outputs are then analyzed by a correlation module
