FER
Facial expression recognition.

INSTALLATION
Currently FER only supports Python 3.6 onwards. It can be installed through pip:
bash
$ pip install fer
This implementation requires OpenCV>=3.2 and Tensorflow>=1.7.0 installed in the system, with bindings for Python3.
They can be installed through pip (if pip version >= 9.0.1):
bash
$ pip install tensorflow>=1.7 opencv-contrib-python==3.3.0.9
or compiled directly from sources (OpenCV3, Tensorflow).
Note that a tensorflow-gpu version can be used instead if a GPU device is available on the system, which will speedup the results. It can be installed with pip:
bash
$ pip install tensorflow-gpu\>=1.7.0
To extract videos that includes sound, ffmpeg and moviepy packages must be installed with pip:
bash
$ pip install ffmpeg moviepy
USAGE
The following example illustrates the ease of use of this package:
```python from fer import FER import cv2
img = cv2.imread("justin.jpg") detector = FER() detector.detect_emotions(img) ```
Sample output:
[{'box': [277, 90, 48, 63], 'emotions': {'angry': 0.02, 'disgust': 0.0, 'fear': 0.05, 'happy': 0.16, 'neutral': 0.09, 'sad': 0.27, 'surprise': 0.41}]
Pretty print it with import pprint; pprint.pprint(result).
Just want the top emotion? Try:
python
emotion, score = detector.top_emotion(img) # 'happy', 0.99
MTCNN Facial Recognition
Faces by default are detected using OpenCV's Haar Cascade classifier. To use the more accurate MTCNN network, add the parameter:
python
detector = FER(mtcnn=True)
Video
For recognizing facial expressions in video, the Video class splits video into frames. It can use a local Keras model (default) or Peltarion API for the backend:
```python from fer import Video from fer import FER
videofilename = "tests/woman2.mp4" video = Video(videofilename)
Analyze video, displaying the output
detector = FER(mtcnn=True) rawdata = video.analyze(detector, display=True) df = video.topandas(raw_data) ```
The detector returns a list of JSON objects. Each JSON object contains two keys: 'box' and 'emotions':
- The bounding box is formatted as [x, y, width, height] under the key 'box'.
- The emotions are formatted into a JSON object with the keys 'anger', 'disgust', 'fear', 'happy', 'sad', surprise', and 'neutral'.
Other good examples of usage can be found in the files demo.py located in the root of this repository.
To run the examples, install click for command line with pip install click and enter python demo.py [image|video|webcam] --help.
TF-SERVING
Support running with online TF Serving docker image.
To use: Run docker-compose up and initialize FER with FER(..., tfserving=True).
MODEL
FER bundles a Keras model.
The model is a convolutional neural network with weights saved to HDF5
file in the data folder relative to the module's path. It can be
overriden by injecting it into the FER() constructor during
instantiation with the emotion_model parameter.
