A Comparative Study of Transfer Learning for Emotion Recognition using CNN and Modified VGG16 Models
<|reference_start|>A Comparative Study of Transfer Learning for Emotion Recognition using CNN and Modified VGG16 Models: Emotion recognition is a critical aspect of human interaction. This topic garnered significant attention in the field of artificial intelligence. In this study, we investigate the performance of convolutional neural network (CNN) and Modified VGG16 models for emotion recognition tasks across two datasets: FER2013 and AffectNet. Our aim is to measure the effectiveness of these models in identifying emotions and their ability to generalize to different and broader datasets. Our findings reveal that both models achieve reasonable performance on the FER2013 dataset, with the Modified VGG16 model demonstrating slightly increased accuracy. When evaluated on the Affect-Net dataset, performance declines for both models, with the Modified VGG16 model continuing to outperform the CNN. Our study emphasizes the importance of dataset diversity in emotion recognition and discusses open problems and future research directions, including the exploration of multi-modal approaches and the development of more comprehensive datasets.<|reference_end|>
