Abstract

Multimodal Facial Emotion Recognition (MFER) for Low resourced Language like Tamil is handled with code-mixed text of Tamil and English. The newly created dataset addresses the multimodal approach on facial emotion recognition with the help of code-mixed memes. The dataset provides facial emotions for the memes and the code-mixed comments for the memes. The memes posted in websites and social media are collected to prepare the dataset. Overall dataset contains 4962 memes with annotated facial emotions and the code-mixed memes in it. Each are annotated by the 3 different annotators with single face emotion and double face emotions with code-mixed Tamil memes. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been applied for detecting the emotions on this dataset containing single faces alone. The preliminary results on the single face emotion dataset has resulted in an accuracy of 0.3028.
