Abstract

Facial emotion recognition is a process that involves detecting and interpreting emotions from facial expressions. This field draws from a range of disciplines, including computer science, psychology, and neuroscience. The ability to accurately recognize emotions from facial expressions has broad implications for humancomputer interaction, healthcare, security, and marketing. This paper presents a thorough overview of the current state of the art in facial emotion recognition, covering topics such as facial expression theories, types of facial emotion recognition, datasets, techniques, evaluation metrics, and applications. Additionally, the paper addresses ethical considerations related to facial emotion recognition. The aim of this survey is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the present state of facial emotion recognition technology.
