Abstract

Face recognition is a computer vision application based on biometric information for automatic person identification or verification from image sequence or a video frame. In this context DCT is the easy technique to determine significant parameters. Until now the main object is selection of the coefficients to obtain the best recognition. Many techniques rely on premasking windows to discard the high and low coefficients to enhance performance. However, the problem resides in the shape and size of premask. To improve discriminator ability in discrete cosine transform domain, we used fractional coefficients of the transformed images with discrete cosine transform to limit the coefficients area for a better performance system. Then from the selected bands, we use the discrimination power analysis to search for the coefficients having the highest power to discriminate different classes from each other. Feature selection algorithm is a key issue in all pattern recognition system, in fact this algorithm is utilized to define features vector among several ones, where these features are selected according a specified discrimination criterion. Many classifiers are used to evaluate our approach like, support vector machine and random forests. The proposed approach is validated with Yale and ORL Face databases. Experimental results prove the sufficiency of this method in face and facial expression recognition field.

Abstract

Recently, panic detection has become essential in security, healthcare, and human-computer interaction. Automatic panic detection (APD) systems are designed to monitor physiological signals and behavioral patterns in real-time to detect stress responses. APD is increasingly adopted across many sectors, including disaster preparedness, COVID-19, and terror attacks. Their integration with various applications reduces human efforts and saves costs. However, most studies rely on existing models with fewer new ones or techniques. This study proposes a vision-based panic detection model using MobileNet, ResNet, and convolutional neural network (CNN). The FER2013 dataset is used for the model training and testing. The results indicate that MobileNet is the most effective model for image-based panic detection across ten folds with an accuracy of 90%, recall of 96.9%, and mean accuracy of 0.032. MobileNet also showed a mean absolute error (MAE) between 0.02 and 0.04. This study has been to confirm MobileNet's suitability for image-based panic detection. The findings contribute to developing more reliable and accurate image-based panic detection systems in real-world applications. It offers valuable insights and lays the groundwork for future deep-leaning-based panic detection studies.
