ABSTRACT:
At this moment there is an ongoing project at Delft
University of Technology aimed at the development of the Integrated System
for Facial Expression Recognition (ISFER). The ISFER project is being developed
in the Knowledge Based Systems group at the Faculty of Technical Mathematics
and Informatics, TU Delft. In this project the works about image preprocessing,
feature extraction and the interpretation of the results are bound in a
single system. One of the most important parts of the facial expression
recognition is recognizing the mouth expression. This paper describes a
new approach to this task. Contrary to the works already done in this field,
it is rather knowledge- than graphically-based. We use here the fuzzy-system
and the artificial neural network techniques to obtain the desired results
