Action Units and Their Cross-Correlations for Prediction of Cognitive Load during Driving

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Anil Yuce, Hua Gao, Gabriel Louis Cuendet

Driving requires the constant coordination of many body systems and full attention of the person. Cognitive distraction (subsidiary mental load) of the driver is an important factor that decreases attention and responsiveness, which may result in human err ...

Individual and Inter-related Action Unit Detection in Videos for Affect Recognition

Anil Yuce

The human face has evolved to become the most important source of non-verbal information that conveys our affective, cognitive and mental state to others. Apart from human to human communication facial expressions have also become an indispensable componen ...

Facial Image Analysis for Fully-Automatic Prediction of Difficult Endotracheal Intubation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Matteo Sorci, Anil Yuce, Hua Gao, Gabriel Louis Cuendet

Goal: Difficult tracheal intubation is a major cause of anesthesia related injuries with potential life threatening complications. Detection and anticipation of difficult airway in the preoperative period is thus crucial for the patients’ safety. We propos ...

Multiple Local Curvature Gabor Binary Patterns for Facial Action Recognition

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Anil Yuce, Nuri Murat Arar

Curvature Gabor features have recently been shown to be powerful facial texture descriptors with applications on face recognition. In this paper we introduce their use in facial action unit (AU) detection within a novel framework that combines multiple Loc ...
