Title
DTTM: a discriminative temporal topic model for facial expression recognition
Abstract
This paper presents a discriminative temporal topic model (DTTM) for facial expression recognition. Our DTTM is developed by introducing temporal and categorical information into Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic model. Temporal information is integrated by placing an asymmetric Dirichlet prior over document-topic distributions. The discriminative ability is improved by a supervised term weighting scheme. We describe the resulting DTTM in detail and show how it can be applied to facial expression recognition. Experiments on CMU expression database illustrate that the proposed DTTM is very effective in facial expression recognition.
