Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is frequently ac-companied by impairment in emotional expression recognition, and therefore individuals with ASD may find it hard to interpret emotions and interact. Inspired by this fact, we developed a web-based video chat to assist people with ASD, both for real-time recognition of facial emotions and for practicing. This real-time application detects the speaker's face in a video stream and classifies the expressed emotion into one of the seven categories: neutral, surprise, happy, angry, disgust, fear, and sad. The classification is then displayed as the text label below the speaker's face. We developed this application as a part of the undergraduate project for the B.Sc. degree in Software Engineering. Its development and testing were made with the cooperation of the local society for children and adults with autism. The application has been released for unrestricted use on https://telemojii.herokuapp.com/. The demo is available at http://www.filedropper.com/telemojishortdemoblur.
