Abstract

Facial expressions involve dynamic changes, and facial expression recognition based on static images struggles to capture the temporal information inherent in these dynamic changes. The resultant degradation in real-world performance critically impedes the integration of facial expression recognition systems into intelligent sensing applications. Therefore, this paper proposes a facial expression recognition method for image sequences based on the fusion of dual neural networks (ResNet and residual bidirectional GRU—Res-RBG). The model proposed in this paper achieves recognition accuracies of 98.10% and 88.64% on the CK+ and Oulu-CASIA datasets, respectively. Moreover, the model has a parameter size of only 64.20 M. Compared to existing methods for image sequence-based facial expression recognition, the approach presented in this paper demonstrates certain advantages, indicating strong potential for future edge sensor deployment.
