摘要

In order to solve the problem of low recognition rate of traditional feature extraction operators under low-resolution images,a novel algorithm of expression recognition is proposed,named central oblique average center-symmetric local binary pattern (CS-LBP) with adaptive threshold (ATCS-LBP).Firstly,the features of face images can be extracted by the proposed operator after pretreatment.Secondly,the obtained feature image is divided into blocks.Thirdly,the histogram of each block is computed independently and all histograms can be connected serially to create a final feature vector.Finally,expression classification is achieved by using support vector machine (SVM) classifier.Experimental results on Japanese female facial expression (JAFFE) database show that the proposed algorithm can achieve a recognition rate of 81.9％ when the resolution is as low as 16× 16,which is much better than that of the traditional feature extraction operators.
