Abstract

This paper discusses the baseline for the Emotion Recognition in the Wild (EmotiW) 2016 challenge. Continuing on the theme of automatic affect recognition `in the wild', the EmotiW challenge 2016 consists of two sub-challenges: an audio-video based emotion and a new group-based emotion recognition sub-challenges. The audio-video based sub-challenge is based on the Acted Facial Expressions in the Wild (AFEW) database. The group-based emotion recognition sub-challenge is based on the Happy People Images (HAPPEI) database. We describe the data, baseline method, challenge protocols and the challenge results. A total of 22 and 7 teams participated in the audio-video based emotion and group-based emotion sub-challenges, respectively.
